Seeking Solace in Nature...


Sitting...
listening to the sound of the birds and the waves as they lap against the shore.


Lighting a candle...


Gazing out the window...
breathing and feeling grateful.


Reading a good book
sipping tea.


Walking along a beach
searching for sea glass
watching the otters and the gulls.

Taking time out to be soothed by the beauty of Nature.


Inviting Natural Beauty Indoors...


Bright and cheerful flowers


Diving into a new book.


Going for a walk in the misty rain...


Looking for bright pops of colour.


Taking in the views 
admiring the details
embracing the various colours and textures.



Wet logs strewn all over the beach and this one looked like a seal.
Do you see it?

Are you seeking the calm and soothing hands of Mother Nature?

Are you taking local action?
I'm looking into more ways to help...
We've made donations of money and plan to make more.


Fresh salt air 
the moist wet mist
slippery logs and mossy rocks.

The gentle lapping of the sea...
the Raven's Song.

A gentle breeze blowing 
shells crunch at our feet.

These don't solve our problems but they do help release tension.

Wishing, Hoping and Praying for Peace.

What an amazing landscape you are surrounded by. All this beauty is glorious and deserves our admiration and respect. I'm enjoy all the chirping birds in the mornings now and the slowly emerging plants and flowers.

Lorrie there is something so special about our beautiful scenery...
I enjoyed seeing your post today with the lovely pink blooms on that tree! Glad to hear that you are feeling better...there are some nasty colds making the rounds.

Spring is a time of hope and new beginnings. The melodic birdsong is so cheerful after the long winter. They will be busy building their nests for the spring and summer babies!

Lovely. Thank you. I am praying for peace as well as supporting Doctors Without Borders as an established charity with feet on the ground.
