Mona Lisa Mondays
Most people walk past the Mona Lisa in under thirty seconds.
They've seen it. They move on.
Mona Lisa Mondays are for the ones who stay a little longer — not because they're looking for something specific, but because they have a feeling there's more in it than a single glance gives.
Each Monday, one quiet observation. One ordinary moment looked at closely enough to become something else.
The week will speed up soon enough. This is before that.
