When I shut my eyes I’m trying to envision and obtain self compassion, what I really want from life.

To be near the people who continue to grow dear to me, Uncrustables, and to preserve, protect, learn, and be one with beautiful, breath taking, more than I can comprehend, types of places such as this.

The four. The one in front being the tallest I have ever seen. Well over twenty feet.

Daydreams of being in places as these with you, respectively and endearingly am working towards finding a way to make these dreams come true

Words to live by

(grabs you by the shoulders) you have to make room for new experiences in your life. you have to go through the unpleasant work of leaving your comfort zone, even if just for a few minutes at a time. because if you don't, your brain will trick you into stagnation. you will start to believe that the world can barely fit you in it. but that's not true. it's the opposite way around. you can fit the whole word inside of you. your task is only this: to welcome it with open arms

— Amal El-Mohtar, from This Is How You Lose the Time War (via lunamonchtuna)

No longer have I, nor will I, ignore what this world’s natural beauty. My soul, mind, and heart can be in the bottom of the ocean but nothing can take away the gifts of companionship, enlightenment, or gracefulness that life can place within my grasp

I am doing something I learned early to do, I am paying attention to small beauties.

The Taraxacum officinale (dandelion) that was posted a few days ago was so popular I thought I’d share this lovely set of seed 'clocks' seen today on a coastal walk. Common dandelions grow in all kinds of grasslands in Orkney from lawns to roadside verges, pastures to traditional meadows.
