In these times, I am thankful for....

3. The great outdoors - I've increasingly become more of a tree hugger. I hike at least 3 times a week and am so grateful for the beauty and force of nature. The delicate intricacies in every living thing and the abundance of air I breathe that gives me energy..It just makes me want to protect and help natural life on this planet. I've loved it since I was a kid and I hope to be able to give even a quarter of what I've taken away from the natural world before I die.

Yes! This week I saw actual honeybees and smelled the orange (satuma) blossoms. Made me not want to cut the grass and disturb them. :hihi:
