Peace Is Flowing Like a River....

If a person feels overloaded, out-of-control and edgy, it's time to spend a few moments alone with Mother Nature.

There's nothing that refreshes the soul like quiet while enjoying the incredible beauty of a surrounding countryside.



Take some deep, cleansing breaths of fresh, cool air. 

Feast your eyes on the landscape in front of you as you let go of all concerns, worries and things that need doing. 


Just "be."

WHAT PART OF NATURE DO YOU LOVE MOST?

Without a doubt..the ocean..Pacific where I live but I always loved the Atlantic too. Those waves rushing in and out give me such peace. I'm so lucky to live within a fifteen minute drive to view it! Happy Sunday!

The ocean is my first love, but last evening hubby and I sat in the backyard and laughed at the antics of the many varieties of birds that came to bathe in our new bird bath. One robin made us forget all our cares.

This is lovely. When I woke up this morning I was thinking of somewhere I could go to commune with nature today. I always need that cleansing time. xo Laura

Lovely! I too find beautiful vistas soothing to my soul, whether fields or mountains, water or greenery. And I particularly love hearing birdsong in a still setting. Second to that, I love the sound of the surf - waves lapping or crashing rhythmically. Vickie

A walk in the forest is one of my favorite ways to connect with nature. The sounds of wind in the pines, birdsong, beautiful greenery all around and just the stillness of the deep woods are a balm for the soul. The physical act of walking and being surrounded by nature is wonderful.

Hope you have a peaceful and nature filled Sunday.

Hello from Spain: I really like the scenery with the sea. They are very relaxing. I like to see how the waves break on the rocks. Keep in touch.

What a great reminder! It's hard to say what part I love the most, I love it all! Clouds are one of my favorites, and green rolling hills. Happy 4th weekend!:)

I like a gentle breeze, the ocean near our home, wild animals, I like it all. Because of this I am a member of the African Wildlife Foundation and the International Wolf Federation.
