Do you ever go to a different city or state and realize how small you are? The problems and concerns I once had suddenly seem silly and insignificant.
Something as effortless as snowfall made me forget all of my day-to-day worries.
My challenge for myself and you is to take some time to get away. Be content with sitting and just being. Smell the cool air, get some coffee, and do something for yourself just because!
I'll be the first to admit, I am not an outdoorsy type girl. (Although if you find me on Tinder, my profile might say otherwise...)
Let me first say, I am absolutely astonished by nature-the way the sky changes, the way snowflakes look, and the way tall redwood trees smell.
I am SO fortunate to live in California where I get it all within 2-4 hour drive!
But, I will say, I do appreciate nature from in the car...with air conditioning & a cozy seat.
When I told my friends I wanted to go on a nature walk, I didn't think that would translate to, "let's go on a hike." But I was wrong.
Long story short, my "nature walk" turned into an 8 mile hike; something that this non-outdoorsy body of mine is not used to.
But oh man, was it pretty!
