How to BE!

I spent 3 days last weekend with wonderful friends laughing, chatting, painting, drawing, taking photos, eating, hiking, playing Human Foosball, contemplating nature and just concentrating on what's important in life.

I love being amazed by what's around me, the light, the plants, friends, animals.

We get so wrapped up in the day to day that we forget to just BE.  Life is not here for all the errands and appointments and traffic jams. Life is here to be lived and enjoyed, to concentrate on friends and nature and breathing. There is something to be said for not having a schedule or the necessity of being someplace but just BEING.  

Animals help us to ground to like them live in the moment, which we do not or even cannot seem to do. We concentrate to much on rushing hither and thither. 

We need to just BREATH.

There is so much in the natural to see and enjoy. A deer strolls through the trees and plucks an apple, a butterfly lands on a flower as water sprays, a rabbit hops by the window. So easy to miss.

My desire for the coming year and hopefully the future, is to set aside time to BE to BREATH, to enjoy the world around and slow down so I can see it.

    I am a painter of animals. There has always been a connection for me and this is how I share it.
