Love how you learned to tune in to yourself through tuning in to nature. The lessons are all there, right? We've just got to be open to them. Beautiful writing.

You always take yourself with you, don't you?

I have experienced it so many times, having changed cities, countries and jobs. Good thing nature is patient, loving and accepting 🧡

I love that image of nature as the patient parent, while we throw the tantrum in the supermarket 😊

We do set the bar high for ourselves, don’t we? And then we think we have to jump over it, instead of accepting that maybe walking under it is okay. Nature is a good teacher. I’m glad you’re managing to slow down a little.

We do! Or at least, I definitely do tend to set the bar quite high for myself!

My experience of moving from the city to the country felt very similar to what you've shared. The more I hustled, the more expansive and patient nature became. Eventually I surrendered and a few things fell apart. I think they were meant to because I haven't missed any of them. Thank you for sharing your experience. I really appreciate it!

Thanks Tiffany. Sometimes the things that don't work out weren't meant to be anyway, that's a lovely message 🌺
