Too Big to Plan

I write this on the day of my tenth wedding anniversary, which happens to coincide with the opening day of my first elk hunt. Foresee this convergence ten years ago on that warm fall day, I certainly did not. The last ten years have taken me on a winding and unpredictable path. And it is only on days like today, when my past and present overlap, that I can see it. The bigness of ten years of living attentively to the present moment. Because a life you can plan, is too small to live.

What are Little Moments you say? This is a once weekly newsletter that I hope is a small nudge or ounce of motivation for you to get outside and observe the natural world. It doesn't have to be grandiose, a small leaf on the ground, an interesting rock, anything you notice that you pay enough attention to casually sketch it or paint it in a journal. All the Little Moments add up to a life lived more observantly, grounded in the natural world.
