Sunny Day In the Park

March 3rd, 2008

I forget how therapeutic a nice day in the sun can be. Today I said “f%$k you” to class and spent the day in Dolores Park in beautiful San Francisco. Since becoming a grad student, it’s rare that I have the time to just relax in the park and actually be able to enjoy it. My mind is always consumed with the stress of everything I have to be responsible for. Today was no different, but at least I allowed myself to get out and relax a little. There’s nothing like feeling the sun on your face to help you forget all of your stress and remember why you are here to begin with.

It seems wrong when we can’t even take the time out of our day to relax for one minute and appreciate our life. Being in nature is soothing and I think a place we all go to when we are needing to get back in touch with ourselves and what we want for our life. It somehow puts things all back into perspective when we need it the most.  Take time to enjoy the freshness and calmness of being in nature–and get back to your roots!

    Yes, that’s a wonderful suggestion. We all have to go out once in a while to enjoy the sunshine, fresh air and the creatures of the woods and the air. We have to commune with mother nature once in a while to recharge our depleted spiritual and emotional batteries. Great post. I love it. May I exchange links with you? Thanks and God bless you and your loved ones always.
