Finding sanctuary in nature

And into the forest I go, to lose my mind and find my soul ~John Muir

In the woods, we saw many birds and a busy woodpecker. We were so busy observing his rhythm that I didn’t take photo.

It’s easier to climb up a mountain trail than coming down.

We are lucky that mountains exist; we are lucky that we have such beautiful sanctuaries on earth where we can enjoy utter silence and heavenly rise!~ Mehmet Murat ildan

Each positive thought is your refuge and your sanctuary, where in that thoughtful moment, you are safe.~ Bryant McGill (Simple Reminders: Inspiration for Living Your Best Life)

The moments of happiness we enjoy take us by surprise. It is not that we seize them, but that they seize us. ~Ashley Montagu

Yesterday we challenged ourselves to try another place. We climbed 600 m above sea level and walked around 12.5 km. We were happy with results and the beautiful view from the top even though it was not exactly as per the original plan. I guess finding plan B is life  😎

Be happy for this moment. This moment is your life ~Omar Khayyam

Satisfaction is enjoying this view

As H. JAckson Brown, Jr. said “Enjoy the satisfaction that comes from doing little things well”.

When a small hike of 4 -5 km distance gives such a spectacular view at an altitude of 400 m above sea level one forgets everything and enjoy nature with 100% satisfaction.

My first entry to show my idea of satisfaction for this week’s “photo challenge”
