Hey my friend, just check in with you. Hope you had a fantastic day. Mine was magical. I visited the beach last night. It was super moon, and the beach at night was quiet and majestic. It made me feel insignificant and yet deeply connected with the grandness of the universe. I have lived my whole life in the hustle and bustle of big cities. I have grown up in high rising building of metropolitan environment and have attended schools, like many of us do, in the confined concrete spaces. I wasn’t lucky to commute with nature until recently. But about three years ago, I shook up my entire life completely. As I mentioned before, it was because I needed to revive my soul that was suffocating under the loads of external demands of being, doing and saying! I was at the deepest, darkest part of the shadow that was encompassing all of me. In the quest to rebuild myself and my life, I was drawn to nature in serendipitous way. Ocean, forest, and beautiful hills of northern California called me over. The last three years I am spending time in Nature. As much as I can. I stop and smell flowers. When I am out in the nature, I really try to quiet the chatter in my brain. It is so hard my friend. But when I manage to do that, I try to feel the energy of nature. When I feel the energy, I feel loved, cared for and protected. It is such a beautiful feeling. Mostly, I was feeling isolated and lonely most of my adult life, but recently, I feel nature is caring for me, is loving me, is embracing me and I am part of. I feel so peaceful. Most importantly I feel grateful. So grateful. And I ask myself, how come all those years that I felt lonely and abandoned in the depth of my heart, I didn’t see this beautiful force and energy around me that is opening its beautiful arms to embrace me. When I sensed and felt with my entire body and soul that I am tiny peace of this bigger universe, it consoled me. I know you and I live a life that many times separate us from nature, we go to work, take care of kids and put others in priority, but my friend, spending time with Nature, whether it is with the flowers in my patio or the hiking trails miles away by the ocean, has had a deep healing effect in me. I think you should give it a try and this time that you see a tree or flower, stop and really see them and try to connect internally with their existence in your world and your cognitive space! It will be healing. Ok, I have to go now. Talk to you later!
