100 Days of Nature – Day 23 – Memories
I started this thing with the intention of sticking to what I can go and check out right now. But on days like today, when I’ve run on my treadmill and, maybe you just don’t feel like going out, its important to remember the things you’ve seen elsewhere. The beautiful memories you have count for everything right now, and looking back on them should serve to know that there is an out there, and you will see it again soon.
So today, I’ll be remembering a snorkeling trip to the Blue Lagoon in Cyprus in 2019. Not really a lagoon, but very blue, and very pretty none the less
100 Days of Nature – Day 20 – Pink Pink Pink
One needs a splash of glorious pink every now and again, found while walking back from a mandatory stint in the office.
100 Days of Nature – Day 16 – Appreciating Constants
I’ve been doing a bit of meditation lately. There’s a very good series on Netflix I recommend if you haven’t heard of it, Headspace Guide to Meditation. Today’s episode was about falling in love with life, particularly thinking about what you appreciate in your life right now.
There’s a tremendous amount i appreciate right now, people and things. But one thing came to mind. A bit odd, and a bit abstract, maybe. But it stood out. The sky? Yes, the sky. Particularly around 8am, to be exact.
I got to thinking about it during the practice. In these times of uncertainty and same old same old; the same routine, same people, same clothes because what’s the point of wearing anything different? Not going out as we used to, yada yada.
But the sky is different. It’s always there, and it’s never the same. The clouds aren’t blemishes at this time, they’re details. I’m not talking about the sunset or sunrise being the markers for new days and days over, I’m just talking about it being there.
100 Days of Nature – Day 15 – Snow! Continued
I love snow. It makes everything wonderful and pretty and glittery. And I haven’t seen it for a few years. This morning, I looked out the window while making a cup of tea and just saw dense snowfall, and it was gorgeous. Even living in such a built up area, it was still beautiful. Just one of the great things about snow; anything can look beautiful.
100 Days of Nature – Day 13 – Snow!!
I love snow, and I hate it when it goes away. After a few dismal winters over the last couple of years, its lovely to just get a peak. Now its back!
100 Days of Nature – Day 12 – Simplicity
Nothing like a dash of colour on a wintery lunchtime walk.
Sometimes it’s difficult to see the minute beauty of every small feature of what makes up a scene. Other times, it just pops out at you.
100 Days of Nature – Day 8 – Nature at Home
Sundays are my ‘in’ days. A bit of laundry, yoga, maybe a bit of Supernatural. On days like these, it’s good to remember that nature is in the home to, in the form of plants or pets.
So this is my baby, Seth. He’s super photogenic.
100 Days of Nature – Day 7 – Changes
Second time doing the wrekin this year, and what a difference a week makes. This was covered in snow and frost last Saturday, and now… well. Just as beautiful, though.
100 Days of Nature – Day 4
Taken during my morning run before work, I think the lady ahead on the ride thought I was strange for stopping to take this.
