there’s something special in the commonplace items of everyday
something uncommon . when seen for a second time . will become common
the obvious clues . will lead to a common path . everyone takes
once a story’s told . it is part of the landscape . no longer unique
what’s called common sense . is really societal . wisdom handed down
a snowfall affects . everyone the same way . yet differently
in the morning fog . common experiences . don’t seem so common
we don’t often think . about many common things . or why they’re common
to compare something we need a common measure: banana for scale
hundreds of footprints from people i’ve never met show how much we share
