You are now receiving unofficial guidance from a slightly sentimental space observer. Please proceed accordingly.

- - - - - DAILY CALIBRATION - - - - -

Allow sunlight to strike your face on purpose.

Step outside. Let the nearest star touch you.

Ten seconds. Eyes closed. Jaw unclenched. Deep breath.

You are solar-powered whether you believe it or not.

- - - - - HUMAN OBSERVATION - - - - -

Apparently, humans used to wait for the bus by simply waiting.

When was the last time you stood still without checking your phone?

- - - - - EARTH TREASURE OF THE DAY - - - - -

Milkshakes.

Ice cream you drink through a straw. Already brilliant.

But pause to appreciate what it takes: cows, farmers, freezers, flavours, and time.

Somewhere in the universe, a frozen dessert you can sip is considered advanced technology.

Here, it is just Tuesday. Lucky you. I think you should treat yourself today.

- - - - - 

If you know someone who could use a daily signal, send this their way, or send them here.

The more of you who remember what matters, the better your odds.

Float well, Earthling.
