The world can be a confusing place. Kind of like one of those old games where you'd stick your hand into a bag and guess what was inside, each day can bring the unknown and unexpected. And that's part of what makes life interesting. Variety.

You miss out on the little differences, the small surprises, that make you interested in the experience of life again. Take a gander at the cool things people saw and wanted to share down below to refresh your perspective and serve as a reminder of why it's important to stop and smell the roses every once in a while.
