Contrails....what? Why would I be thinking or writing about contrails during this mindfulness exercise? Well earlier this week I was on the patio of a restaurant in Huntington Beach and I watched a contrail drift and spread slowly while I relaxed and watched while having an appetizer and I ended up taking a picture of the contrail.
Today as I flew across the country from Los Angeles to Washington DC I was able to see a few of the contrails up close.
This wasn't terribly profound, though it reminded me of times that I have spent looking up at the sky from when I was a kid to when I was traveling in Africa and I was even reminded of a friend of mine that has posted pictures of clouds on Facebook that she thought looked like shapes. Most recently she posted a photo with a cloud that she thought looked like a headless Superman flying through the sky.
All in all this just was another opportunity to be sure to take in the world around me in many novel ways that get me out of the monotony or daily grind. Hopefully this has done that foot you too!
