This quote from Toni Morrison, which I first came across in The Rise by Sarah Lewis, is what popped into my mind:

I continue to be amazed every day at the sign posts and directions LIFE lays at my feet. It takes a lot of awareness to recognize them as such! I pulled an I Spy Christmas book out of a bin yesterday… it’s like that without the list of what you’re supposed to find. 😂
