If I hadn’t looked up…
I would walked right past it
If I hadn’t walked in silence
I would have been distracted and walked on by
If I hadn’t chosen to climb the stairs and keep exploring
I would have missed out on finding a stunning building hiding in plain sight
If I hadn’t dared to open the door
I wouldn’t have been greeted by a warm, smiling face of a man I had worked with 20 years ago
If I hadn’t responded to a client message right there and then
I would have got on the right train
If I had got on the right train
I wouldn’t have been able to laugh at myself and then realise just how much I’ve grown
If I had remembered the spare car key fob
I wouldn’t have walked home in the sunshine and nature
If I drove home
I wouldn’t have bumped into a good friend on the walk and enjoyed a lovely chat
Put your phone down
Slow down
Look up
Let the world back in
