“No! NOT there! Right there! Oh, for cryin’ out loud, NO! Right THERE! Right in front of your face! If it was a snake you’d already be dead!”
– Dad, from across the shed / garage, “helping me” find the tool he needed, which may or may not have actually been right THERE!
Sometimes we look too hard.
Sometimes it’s right in front of us.
I’d argue that most of the time “it” is right in front of us. Whatever “it” is.
The right thing to do. The best way to do it. All that we need. Most of what we could ever want. A chance to make a difference. A chance to right a wrong. The information we’re seeking. The thing we want most.
If it was a snake, most of the time, we’d already be dead.
