When I experience something new, I put attention on what is unique or fresh about my experience. I’ll look at details and consider whether I want to incorporate similar things in my life going forward. Leaving behind or saying goodbye to something is also time for reflecting on its unique qualities, for considering what I value, for contemplating the history of our relationship; for adding depth to the thought, “Thank you for your service.”  Thing about something you owned, maybe a car or article of clothing, something that you recently let go. If you were to thank it, what would you thank it for?
