To learn the most valuable lesson of artists—about noticing properly and living with eyes open, thereby savoring time—does not require creating art for galleries; rather, one can take walks in unfamiliar parts of town, ask old friends about unexplored sides of their lives, observe stars, or hold one's partner in novel ways.

Evidence Quote
“we don't need to make art in order to learn the most valuable lesson of artists which is about noticing properly living with our eyes open ... we could as part of a goal of living more deliberately take a walk in an unfamiliar part of town ask an old friend about a side of their life we'd never dared to probe”
