Pay attention. Pay a compliment. Pay a bill. Payback. Pay the piper. Pay to play. Which "pay" do you do most often?

I'm very iffy/wishy-washy in that regard. I pay great attention to some things and to others I am totally and completely oblivious. To  my detriment of course. I don't see the warning signs ahead so I go right straight into that ditch I could have avoided if I had only PAID ATTENTION! Thank you for your reply Ele! :)
