Update Your Understanding
The Sages (Talmud, Yoma 29a) tell us that it is more difficult to understand an idea we already know than one that is new to us. This is because we feel we already understand it and do not concentrate on it as much as we should. Also, we tend to rely on the level of understanding we had when we were younger and less mature. (we teach children an idea in a way that they understand--and then they don't realize they have a childish understanding of the issue)
Today, think about a concept that would enhance your life greatly if internalized and integrated. Reflect on that idea with your present knowledge and life experience as opposed to how you learned it as a child.

Things You Don't See Every Day...
Waking up, going through our daily routine, there must be lots of things we don't get to see outside of our immediate comfort zone. As they say, some things you just don't get to see every day. Such as:
These Flatirons in Colorado
The Leshan Giant Buddha
The surprise at Lake Huron
The ultimate spice rack
Five baby owls comforted by a stuffed toy
A 6,000 year old kiss
Flamingos in the Miami Metrozoo bathroom (before Hurricane Andrew).
What it looks like diving near Easter Island
Winter in Krakow (Poland)
This perfect rainbow in Wilford Sound, New Zealand
This huge Malachite
The Bay of Kotor
When brushing your cat gives you a whole new cat
A Lynx couple walking along the highway
A Blazing Warehouse that Freezes, Chicago
Giant Galapagos Tortoises marching in formation
Space Shuttle Launch from above
The amazingly clear water of the Maldives
remarkable sand sculpture
