Pausing to Observe the Beauty

Go, grab your journal, and hit the trail; it is time for another entry prompt. As you walk, notice your surroundings. Is the sun beaming? Are the birds swiftly flying past? Take in the sights, sounds, smells, and sensations. Each day, I pass by a lake where a host of turtles live and sunbathe. When I attempt to sit near the turtles, some flee, and others are unbothered. During these moments of quiet reflection, I am reminded to appreciate the beauty around us. Enjoy your brief walk, and catch life happening in nature near you. Then write about what you appreciate.
