N’avez-vous jamais ouï ce mot d’étonnement dedans les comédies : Veillé-je, ou si je dors ? Comment pouvez-vous être certain que votre vie n’est pas un songe continuel, et que tout ce que vous pensez apprendre par vos sens n’est pas faux, aussi bien maintenant que lorsque vous dormez ? —Descartes, La Recherche de la Vérité par la lumière naturelle
(Have you never heard that astonished phrase in a comedy, 'Am I awake, or am I asleep?' How can you be certain that your life is not a continuous dream, and that everything you believe you learn by your senses isn't false, right now just as when you are asleep?)

Sartre put this principle into a three-word slogan, which for him defined existentialism: 'Existence precedes essence'. What this formula gains in brevity it loses in comprehensibility. But roughly it means that, having found myself thrown into the world, I go on to create my own definition (or nature, or essence), in a way that never happens with other objects or life forms. You might think you have defined me by some label, but you are wrong, for I am always a work in progress. I create myself constantly through action, and this is so fundamental to my human condition that, for Sartre, it is the human condition, from the moment of first consciousness to the moment when death wipes it out. I am my own freedom: no more, no less.
(The Existential Void)

good things to pay attention to more often
the color of trees
clouds and how they look different throughout the day
the different colors the mornings can have. sometimes it's an orange hue and sometimes pink and sometimes it's too misty to tell
pretty color schemes in random places (the trees and your neighbors wooden patio and the color of their car)
the states of the vehicles passing you by, dents and scratches and the different trinkets suspended from their rearview mirrors
the sound of silence
the shadows the lights cast in your home, like how sunset looks different than sunrise, and the shadows the sun casts look different than those of your lamps and candles
pretty details in buildings and houses like certain types of windows or doorknobs or archways
the movement of things in the wind. flags, leaves, flowers, people's hair and coats
