I appreciate simple things. A walk through shaggy grass, the smooth patterns in birch bark, the sun warming my back, the chickadees chit-chit-chittering above my head.
It’s easy to get lost in the hustle bustle, the long to-do lists. I watch the boxes on my calendar fill with obligations and appointments. I spend my week-ends exhibiting in art fairs — my new addiction. So, especially during the busy weekends, I plan so I can take some quiet time for myself, time to re-charge, time to slow down, find a space for a walk in nature, and appreciate the simple things.

Perfectly simple..and simply perfect. Love the sense of peace here.
Peaceful photos are a gift, aren’t they? One can enter into it and feel the quiet.
Slowing down is good. 🙂
I love this photo, Bo. As Marcie commented, it’s “perfectly simple and simply perfect.”
I like to imagine myself standing under these trees, the sun filtering through the leaves, warming my back. It’s a nice visualization prompt.
