22 Apr Earth Day Moment of Reflection
“In every walk in nature, one receives more than he seeks” -John Muir
This morning I was walking around my yard taking in all the magic that our earth has been busy creating. I don’t know about you, but I am always in awe that after even the harshest winter, the plants return from the ground. Often they return even stronger than they were the previous year. I found it even more poignant that I was taking all this beauty in on Earth Day.
Earth Day gives us a reminder to get outside and appreciate all the little things taking place around us naturally. It is a great reminder to be inspired by the nature around us, and be more vigilant in our own responsibility to preserve the land around us for future generations.
Honor the earth today by taking time to take a walk through your local woods, park, or yard. Examine the flower beds for evidence of the plants returning. Examine the trunk of a tree and see all the critters that are hiding within the ridges of the bark. Take in all the little magical details that we are often too busy to notice. Be awed and inspired by Earth’s varied beauty, bounty, and resilience. As always, reach out to Earth Landscape with your inspirations and aspirations, and we will happily work with you to make them a reality.
