A bench facing the lake, a tree to lean against, a window behind which the expanse of the city is hidden. For a quick reset in my day, I take a few minutes to look beyond the horizon of my computer and admire my surroundings, every colour, every detail, even those my eyes can barely make out. It’s an essential step back in my busy day, and a reminder that we are part of something much bigger than ourselves. Today the weather allows it, so I choose to take this moment for myself outside. I admire the landscape in front of me, these mountains that look like small hills in the distance. I smile at the people passing by. I take a deep breath and tell myself that life is rich beyond belief.
