I knew it had been a while since a post but had no idea it had almost been a year! Life can take over sometimes. The fast pace of this world can consume us at times.
Sometimes we have to remind ourselves to in this loud world to appreciate the world around us and and learn to just “be”. I recently took a week and unplugged from the world and took life down to a slower pace. I spent a week in rural Tennessee with an amazing friend away from my hectic world.
There were morning walks to the mailbox, hikes to waterfalls, hours in the art studio learning a new acrylic technique (more on that in the next post), and endless hours of laughter. Just what I needed to slow down the pace and connect with my soul again. It is essential that we can all unplug from the rat race we call life. We have to take that road less traveled from time to time and regound ourselves. I came back with such a calm. I find myself reflecting on how to hold on to that feeling of peace and not letting the world come barging back in and taking over again.
