Hellooooooo nature!!

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


On Saturday mi amor walks by me as I sit at my usual spot in front of the computer, 
working on a hundred things at once, 
and says……..


“No work tomorrow ok? Lets go for a picnic somewhere. 
I cant believe you’ve never been to Steamers Beach….”

a slight sense of anxiety passes over me….I have become accustomed to filling my days with work, 
grateful that I have the luxury of doing the things I love and calling it work, 
frenetic about all the possibilities and all I want to put out into the world…..
 I have forgotten what it is to actually take a whole day off
and then…. a sense of relief washes over me…..

Yes, I say. That would be wonderful!

8 kms later….
a day of breathing in the beauty,
 the simplest of picnics on the most gorgeous of beaches….
 and I am feeling totally replenished.

I want every Sunday to be a new adventure!
Hold me to it ok?

Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.  ~Kahlil Gibran
 “Today I have grown taller from walking with the trees.”
— Karle Wilson Baker

 “I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.”
— Henry David Thoreau

“Wildness reminds us what it means to be human, what we are connected to rather than what we are separate from.”
— Terry Tempest Williams

 There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,

There is a rapture on the lonely shore,
There is society, where none intrudes,
By the deep sea, and music in its roar:
I love not man the less, but Nature more.
~George Gordon, Lord Byron


 Adopt the pace of nature:  her secret is patience.  ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

 I believe that there is a subtle magnetism in Nature, which, if we unconsciously yield to it, will direct us aright.  ~Henry David Thoreau

 “Nature always wears the colors of the spirit.”
— Ralph Waldo Emerson
I thank you God for this most amazing day, for the leaping greenly spirits of trees, and for the blue dream of sky and for everything which is natural, which is infinite, which is yes.  ~e.e. cummings

It isn’t hard to be inspired….

So grateful for this little adventure and also for an opportunity to pay it forward below…first five people who comment on my post today will receive a piece of art from me some time in 2014!
i saw this on Irenes blog and decided to join in the fun!  How about you?
* Pay It Forward Art-making Project for 2014 *

I promise to make a small work of art for the first five people who comment on this post and say “YES, I want in”. A ‘like’ alone is not enough of a commitment, nor is a comment about thinking Pay It Forward is a great idea.

You must in turn post this as your status update and make something for the first five who comment on your status.

The rules are simple:
– It has to be your work, made by you, and the recipient must receive it before 2014 ends.
– It can be anything art-based: a drawing/illustration or a conceptual work of art, a photograph, a knitted item, cross-stitch, paper maché – or anything in between.

I’m paying this forward thanks to Irene Rafael 

 Yes, you can be on each other’s pay it forward lists.

First five, GO!

ps I’ve decided to learn to play the ukelele
I might even sing you a song some time soon! 
Love to all! 
Ciao for now bellas ♥
