The blue sky through a gap in the trees

A momentary lapse in background noise so it's unexpectedly quiet

The feeling of wind tugging at your clothes

Rain on the roof

Kids running home from the school bus

Starlings in the tree out my office window singing

The sun on my back, the wind on my front

Sore muscles from hard exercise

The twist in a short story I read, and the wow moment

My room being tidy

Why is the word bird required? A kiwi is a kiwi, it's literally the name of the animal. You don't say pigeon bird?

In terms of focussing, no.

I will sometimes listen to specific music to build concentration but more than one input and its a distraction.

I think people who spend a lot of time focussing on their devices find it easy to piggyback that focus onto something else.

It has ever been so.

How many people who could have changed the world were too tired, poor, hungry, or ill.

I don't live in the us so I can't comment on any change that has been or not been.

I do know that privilege itself obscures experience. Compassion and empathy are built on experience. Therefore expecting someone who is privileged to have compassion or empathy to those without the same privilige is unrealistic. They have to be shown, or brought to a point where they can align their experience with others.
