Well, hello there. It's Morgan here and welcome to today's episode. Today's episode is about the

small things in daily life that may seem scattered or unrelated at times and recognizing that

perhaps there are common threads or there's a larger picture that might be harder to see at times.

And there is an image of a kaleidoscope and particularly a part of a kaleidoscope that I just want to share with you today.

So a kaleidoscope has something called an object chamber.

And this is a part of the kaleidoscope that holds the objects used to create the patterns and designs. So these could be little things like glass beads or pebbles or other small colorful objects. And the purpose of this chamber is to supply the raw materials that the prism mirrors on the inside of the kaleidoscope and the lenses can reflect to multiply to create what's seen through the eyepiece.

Now what's significant about this object chamber?

And if you're looking at a kaleidoscope, it's the part that you're turning with your hand.

So on one end, you're looking through and on the other end, you're turning it to be able to see the colors change.

So what's significant about this object chamber is that it shows how even the smallest things interact with one another to

create a larger complex pattern because as you turn the object chamber the small objects inside shift

and they arrange and rearrange themselves and And as a result, they create this infinite

variety of designs and patterns that shimmer in the light. And every turn of the chamber

transforms the way you see the small objects. And of the many things that could potentially

be interesting to observe within a kaleidoscope, the small repository of objects could perhaps

be seen as a reminder of what beauty might arise from the simplest interactions of small

things coming together to make something new. And perhaps we can consider this to be true of

daily life. The small container of 24 hours is filled with many things,

including many little things that may not always seem to fit together, such as a deep breath

or a tiny heart scribbled in the margin of a notebook, a song playing in the distance, an idea

jotted down in the notes app, the opening of a window to let air in.

And yet in the same way one might turn the object chamber of a kaleidoscope. The clock turns all day. And what if the small
