We need to spend more time looking up,

watching birds,

studying flowers,

and marveling at insects.

For as long as I can remember, Nature has been my source of wonder, my peace, and my solace. From a dandelion growing through a crack in the sidewalk to a hike in the mountains, the renewal that Nature offers is there for everyone. It is the cure for what ails us.

All it asks is that we appreciate it.
