Small Windows: Brief essays on noticing

June Alderwood

Most days pass in a blur of tasks, and the small things go unseen: light on a wall, a pause between sentences, the particular quiet of early morning. These short essays slow down long enough to notice them, one brief piece at a time, each one a window rather than a lesson. There is no argument to follow and nothing to solve. Just a calm attention, offered gently, meant to be sat with before sleep.
