Ahh, nature!

                                          

                                

The past two days have been quite exhausting with all my school work that I need to get done. I have spent hours inside sitting at the computer, or lounging on the couch. Being inside for almost two days straight, barely seeing any sunlight, has put in into a "slump" of some kind. While I am happy to have two days off of work to focus on my studies, it also gets tiring staying at home. 

When I find myself waking up with no motivation I know its time to make a change. Lately, I feel too close to Netflix, and too far from nature. This morning I woke up around 8 AM and decided to go on a walk. The minute I stepped outside I felt better! It was foggy, but not too cold. Walking through the hills near my hours, I started to feel calm, cool, and collected. I felt myself breathing in the crisp air, and I felt refreshed! 

Here I am sitting back at home writing this post, and I feel completely alive! Its a great feeling, but I know I need to step up on connecting with nature more often. In turn, I will be more connected with myself. This is nothing I didn't know before, but somehow between the hussle and bussle of "real life" I forget to take a moment with myself, and notice how beautiful the world really it. That may sound cheesy but its the truth!
