Walking through the forest on its last leg of winter, spring hiding just underneath the surface, bursting to come forth, never ceases to calm me. When my heart and mind are filled to overflowing with thoughts and anxieties, escaping to forest reminds me to breathe deeply and see the beautiful things right before my eyes. The beautiful things living in today. Worrying won't change anything. So breathe deeply and remember how you are blessed.
That forest is beautiful. Nature is inspiring... whenever I take a walk, I feel somehow closer to God. I always tell myself, if God created the skies and the mountains and the animals, then he can certainly handle my problems :)
ReplyDeleteYour post makes me long for spring. Where I live, spring doesn't come until late April or early May, so I'll have to be patient.
I just skipped across your blog, and it is just beautiful. Your writing is gorgeous. Your photographs are superb. and I just love it all! :)
ReplyDeleteFor some reason it isn't letting me follow. hmm? I will try again--because I really would like to! :)
Anyways, lovely blog!
