What seeing a bear taught me

Last Sunday, August 28, I went to Waterton Lakes National Park for the day with some friends. We wound up eating lunch along the lake shore below the back of the Prince of Wales hotel, which isn't where I typically would've stopped to eat. One of my friends, Trish, had commented on the way to the park that she would like to see a bear. Sure enough, as we were leaving the picnic area, a smaller 1 or 2 year old black bear came ambling across the road, passing only a few feet from the car. Had we not stopped at that place for lunch we likely wouldn't have seen a bear. So changing things up and trying a new picnic area rather than the typical can pay off. What are you doing to change the typical and make a few differences in your day or your life?
