I have gained a new appreciation for my neighborhood the past couple of days. I like to walk outside but normally just walk around and have not taken the time to stop and enjoy the sites. I am lucky that we have sidewalks and walking trails, bridges and a natural lake. I decided to walk down to the lake and take in the sights and breeze.
I observed the birds flying overhead and ducks and cranes floating in the water. It was so nice and pleasant just to sit there and breathe in the fresh air that I sat out for nearly two hours. I walked around periodically skipping through the grass and picking up and blowing dandelion flowers. I had my phone so I was able to capture the scenery and put it into this little photo collage displayed here.
I have decided to make an effort to spend more time sitting by the lake and enjoying the outdoors. It was so relaxing and I felt so free listening to my music and singing along to some of my favorite songs. My wish is for everyone to be able to take time out to enjoy and appreciate the simple things in life. You will be better for it.
