In front of you
It often happens we ask things which are right in front of us.
This morning, I asked my daughter about her lunch box when I was holding it in my hand.
My students asked me what should they take for the exam next Friday when all the rules were written in last year’s exam I shared with them.
Are we distracted? Maybe.
Are we mindless? Often.
I learned we shouldn’t worry, laugh when it’s ridiculous and, eventually, improve in paying attention to what’s in front of us.
