The Ordinary is Extraordinary
The ordinary
Is extraordinary
When new;
Before the wonder
Has been stolen
By familiarity.
Opher – 2.2.2020
The familiar is never even noticed, no matter how wonderful it is. It is the rare that garners our attention.
Yet all around us are ridiculously beautiful things.
Everything has its poetry and art.
We are often too preoccupied to notice.
The mundane is as much a miracle as the exotic.
Yes, indeed and the ability to observe such ordinary things is extraordinary nowadays.
It’s a shallow plastic world we’ve created, Georgina.
