Back to Nature :-)

   I've made a new commitment to nature!  After a wonderful Sunday trip to Brazos Bend national park, I've decided that I'm going to try to visit the great outdoors at least once a month.  By that, I mean get out of town, no traffic noise, no city lights, underneath the big open sky trip back to nature.  I'd completely forgotten how calming it is to walk around a hiking trail, and how peaceful it feels to walk barefoot in the grass. I don't think I ever consciously tried to stay away from nature, but I guess in all my bustling city life, I just failed to make time to be in the great outdoors.  I liked feeling small and feeling like I fit in as a part of what's natural in this world.  It was energizing to see all the animals and hearing their sounds as opposed to the noises of the city and electricity.  I felt happy, kind of like a kid again. I was open to amazement and entertainment and I can't wait to go back!  When's the last time you went found yourself in nature?  If it's been a while, I suggest you take a little trip!

Meet you in the Woods!!
