Monday:
After a little bit of snow, the Sun came and there were nice reflections in the paddles at the park and on the Streets.I always make sure that I have time to have my daily walk or a jog...otherwise I will get moody. It is the feeling of space and freedom that I need. It is some sort of ventilation of mind and letting the whole 360 degrees of outside world surround you. Going in the middle of the park, no walls and no sharp acoustic noises. Soft and gentle surroundings or some days a heavy wind or rain to fight with. I feel like I am measured again, just as a creature of Nature myself. Being part of the big system, a very small part.. but also an important, unique me. It is a healthy feeling sometimes, to be alone surrounded by Nature and forget all the different roles, responsibilities and the routines. Accepting the quiet, accepting everything like it is and not waiting anything more. It is a mental break that you need and later back to normal life again. The source of creativity, the signs and the details out there are helping us to find a right direction.
Maybe the next big political meeting should be kept in the middle of the woods where the personal Ego's would hopefully get smaller...a one month camp to find a better perspective and focus on important things, like the long term future of this Planet!
Tuesday:
A sunny morning, but later more cloudy and a little bit of rain drops. Short ecotherapy at the park again. This is a new word to me "ecotherapy", but the philosophy behind it sounds familiar. Ecotherapy is based on the idea that people are connected to and impacted by the natural environment. A walk in the nature increases positive emotions, lowers the blood pressure, can reduce aggression and the symptoms of depression. It is also a common sense that the nature has a big influence on us, but sometimes we just seem to forget it. A healthy relationship between people and the Nature is also important for the development of the children: Playing outdoors, having picnics at the park and climbing to the trees.
WEDNESDAY: What a nice sunrise. I decided to keep the Camera ready upstairs every morning, because the view is often so breath taking. Looking forward to see the sky again tomorrow. Even the beautiful pictures are like a medication for the beauty seeking soul, Eco-photo-therapy in this case.
This was my mail this time, greetings from A'dam!
