Question

Mr. Laspina has walked the same route for thirty years. It is a very beautiful walk that takes him past a lovely pond with many willow trees. But he is always in a hurry and never notices what is around him. One day, his young granddaughter walks with him. She has never taken this walk and is in awe of its natural beauty. She points out what she sees. The next day, the man notices many beautiful things for the first time. Is the theme sated or implied?
