Paying Attention In Life

Sometimes you're so busy with your life that you don't pay attention to the little things that are around you. Daily commitments and responsibilities keep you distracted. It's not until you pause for a second that you feel as if something is missing. When you have a life plan, you sometimes forget that even plans can be changed. Everyday brings new experiences that change who you are. So that after awhile, you may not be the same person who created the plan in the first place. When you are beginning to feel as if it doesn't fit who you are anymore, it's time to stop for a moment. Paying attention to where you are and what is going on is important to knowing when things need to be change. You are where you need to be whether or not it's in your plan. 
If we don't pay attention, we sometimes miss the butterflies in life...

(I am guilty about being busy and letting life slip by. When I get focused on a mission, my efforts are concentrated on that. Life is about balancing priorities. But who is actually good at it?)
