explore your senses

As I look up through the tress, and be in the moment....

I hear delightful birdsong,

I feel the soft breeze on my face,

I see the dappled light through the leaves,

I smell the intoxicating lavender at my feet.

My senses are alive.

Where have you been lately that brought your senses alive? Share your moments here today.

lavender mmmm. I love your green picture and moment

yesterday, I was on the bus… this couple, just married, maybe? it was the moment and her head over his shoulder, and the red flower too. No birds, no trees but love.

It's been raining here. An unsual amount of rain. Then finally the sun came out. Everyone seemed to crawl out from where ever they were staying dry to soak it up.

Here, at my favorite section of our park. Remembering some very happy times in this exact spot & working out some of the kinks in my head & heart.

Goodness! My latest blog post relates to this! There's nothing better then immersing yourself in nature to make your senses come alive.

Funnily enough I've been embracing the rain we've had recently. It's felt cleansing and brings so much new growth with each shower.

Despite heavy fog and rain, a group of us went exploring last weekend -

A lonely road lead us towards adventure

Watched ospreys hover, dive and emerge with fish in talons

Upclose and personal with Columbine

a 20 minute walk with my camera in the garden near my apartment after a long, hard week did it for me.

Joyous morning at Jewel Lake in Berkeley. A cloudy day but there were birds and trees everywhere. Great day!

If you have, you may or may not have noticed the abnormal a lot of low-cut basketball <a href="http://www.kobeshoes-mall.com">kobe 6</a>shoes, at present of these players with the feet. What is going on here? Well, apparently basketball shoes has<a href="http://www.kobeshoes-mall.com">kobe V</a>become the ballet shoes choice for most of the basketball athletes, amateur and professional.
