Sweet lilacs beckon.

As soft tall grasses call me.

The trees wave welcome.

wanting them to calm you down

enjoy, peace and solitude

GLADE
COPSE
CLEARING

In the glade so fair and green,
Where copse and clearing meet,
The birds sing a sweet serene,
Nature’s beauty is a treat.

Nature’s sharp embrace,

Talons grasp with fierce control,

Survival’s strong hold

Grips quite tightly as they hunt

All hinges in their success…

Gentle lilies float

On tranquil waters they rest

Nature’s beauty shown

The stages have all been set 

In creation’s miracles

Nature’s gentle touch
Whispers through the swaying trees
Peaceful, tranquil, calm

Unplugging

How do you know when it’s time to unplug? What do you do to make it happen?

When I feel overwhelmed with work or personal life, I know it’s time to unplug. One of the activities that helps me unwind is drawing while listening to music. Engaging in these two activities simultaneously allows my mind to stop overthinking, providing me with a sense of peace for a while.

Additionally, I find peace in nature. During times when I need to unplug, I’ve taken trips to Joshua Tree, and the experience has been incredibly refreshing. If I can’t make it to Joshua Tree, I visit a local park, find a quiet bench, and simply observe the world around me.

Recognizing the importance of unplugging has been a learning process for me. Since realizing its significance, I’ve made a conscious effort to prioritize this practice in order to prevent feeling overwhelmed.
