It’s amazing watching Alby watching his world as we sit side by side in the sunshine looking out onto our back garden.
To me I just see “garden”. Pretty undifferentiated. I know some of the names of the plants, I can see the various sections. But I just see garden.
He on the other hand sees opportunity! Opportunity for carnage and destruction. He can be sitting apparently at peace on the patio and then with blistering speed, and laser like precision, run the length of the garden and grab some small animal.
It struck me that life and work can be the same. Some are content to see the big picture, take in what is happening, and unless something needs tending leave it be.
Others on the other hand are looking for trouble, opportunities to have impact, and aren’t always aware of the destruction they leave behind…
