Fast Food, Fine Restaurants, and Extraordinary Details

April 11, 2008 by Liz

In Every Person and Every Moment

The experience of a fast food restaurant doesn’t take much thinking — stand in line, get your food, and then eat. Sometimes we go through that routine without even noticing how the food tastes.

The experience of a fine restaurant is tuned and timed to whet our appetite. The service, presentation, and atmosphere are choreographed in extraordinary detail so that we savor every bit.

Unfortunately, most life experiences don’t come served up like a visit to a fine restaurant. A sunrise, a gorgeous flower, or a new friend enters our life, and it’s up to us to see the extraordinary.

The world serves up beautiful experiences with incredible people — all through our ordinary moments. What waits in them is deeper, richer, and more valuable than a fast-food glance will ever reveal. Every person and every moment offers a wealth of ways to connect, to belong, to make our lives easier, more meaningful, and more fun.

The extraordinary details of life are the fine food experiences that feed our souls.

Where are the extraordinary details in your life?
