Last month I announced the launch of a new Supporter feature — a monthly noticing prompt I’m calling Savor of the Month:

In a nutshell, at the start of every month I’ll announce one specific thing to look out for, pay attention to, appreciate. The idea is to convert something everyday and taken for granted into something we might, yes, savor.

And every month I’ll create a Supporter chat where you can enjoy others’ results, and share yours. You can post pictures, drawings, written observations, whatever works for you. Or just browse!

Last month the subject was shadows (fabulous results here).

For February, the subject is small flowers: pay attention to noticing the smallest flowers you encounter. The thread is here.

The quick back story on this month’s prompt:
