3 Minute Retreat: Nature

 I go to nature to be soothed and healed, and to have my senses put in order. -John Burroughs

I honestly do not know anyone who can speak ill of the beauty of nature. While I may not enjoy some aspects like serious camping, I can never pass up a nature walk in our woods, a moment by the river down the road to just listen to the rushing water. I could sit for hours just staring at the beauty of an ocean to the glorious mountains my home is surrounded by.

What does nature look like to you?

The world is a often an overwhelming place with endless paths from joy to devastation. But think for a moment that when we look up at the sky, we are connected to each and every human being on this earth. We are all looking at the same sun, the same stars. Nature connects us.

The next time when you feel overwhelmed by life or that a sense of loneliness darkens your heart...look up and remember you are not alone. Someone out there feeling the same way you are in that moment is looking up and wanting to connect with you.
