Close your eyes the next time you are out in your yard or in a favourite natural place. And then when you open them again, imagine that you are coming over a hill and seeing a place you had never seen before. Although it is all vaguely familiar to you, it's as though you have never seen it before. What do you notice about the place? How does it make you feel? Watching with newness can help you to rediscover what exists already. It can help you to refresh what has become old.
