There's so many things we could care about and we live in a world connected by the internet which offers an endless stream of possibilities. Trying to comprehend everything all at once, or to care about everything, is impossible and even were it a possibility I believe it's more important than ever to be clear about what is truly important and worthy of our attention and what is not. Splitting our focus across many different things means those that deserve our focus may not get enough of it.
What truly requires our focus varies from person to person and can be dependent upon so many factors but what I feel is common to each of us is that the important things should get more focus than the less important. Taking the time and responsibility to see what is noise and distraction then shifting focus away from those things makes much more sense and will help us create better lives.
It's the weekend and I'm firmly focused on having some time off work with my guy and a small overnight trip we're taking into the countryside which should be nice. As always, we'll have some music playing in the car and I'll most definitely be singing along. Here's another Saturday Selections installment, one of a series of posts in which I share some music I've been listening to.
If you like music and want to share some with the rest of us you're free to do so and maybe you'll even help someone find some music they haven't already discovered. If you wish to use the #saturdayselections tag that's ok too, it's a free space to do as you wish.
