Changing Focus Blogging Challenge: Serene Scenes

A change of scenery does one good. Whether it’s for writer’s block, problem solving, or the monotonous ccp/covid mandated environment for 19+ months, gardening, walks, and drives in the country are a godsend for me.

Nature is the art of God. – Dante Alighieri

Serene Scenes

Mother Nature’s mesmerizing diorama like a piercing sapphire blue sky, golden glow of the sun, or birds gliding effortlessly along — burgeon awe, joy, gratitude, and can evoke a calming sense of overall peace.

Nature speaks to us through different images, landscapes, colors, patterns, and forms of exquisite beauty. As we admire nature’s extravagance, our emotions and feelings become part of it. This harmonious balance makes our souls happy.
