"To find the universal elements enough; to find the air and the water exhilarating;
to be refreshed by a morning walk or an evening saunter; to be thrilled by the
stars at night; to be elated over a bird’s nest or a wildflower in spring — these
are some of the rewards of the simple life."
– John Burroughs
How perfectly stated? Makes me think of why I love camping so much...I love falling asleep knowing that the sky is filled with stars above me, and waking up to sunshine and birds singing their morning songs.
Nature has amazed me lately. Don't get me wrong, I've always had a love for the outdoors, but I'm becoming a sap for noticing the littlest things it has to offer. Like one of my previous blogs said, I love watching rain drops hit the top of water. I love watching leaves sway in the wind right when fall hits. I love seeing things bloom the minute we get some sunshine.
Today's favorite:
Cherry Blossoms.
They are everywhere. I love when springtime begins, because we get these pretty little pink flowers all over town. Although they usually are the first sign that my allergies are going to start killing me, I get so excited! It's like a constant party everywhere you go with pink confetti flying all over the place! Plus, it usually means that the sunshine is coming our way. No complaints there :)
