I truly appreciate the beauty of nature, and I enjoy your eye for capturing beautiful images. You don’t have to post every week; posting every second week or even monthly would be perfectly fine. With so many options to choose from, it takes time to fully appreciate each picture. There are 21 choices to go through, and I can select the images I want to save. The words "love," "compassion," and "community" resonate deeply with me, as they convey a sense of connection and empathy. I really enjoy this aspect of the network. Thanks for being awesome!

Sometimes the best parts of a photo aren’t what you planned.
I was about to crop this picture when I noticed a little bee off to the side. What could have been an unnoticed detail became part of the beauty I now get to share.
That’s what I love about photography: I spend hours with each image, not just editing, but really seeing. It’s peaceful, grounding, and a reminder to slow down. Before I even take the lens cap off, I pause, breathe, and give thanks for whatever beauty I might witness.
So often, people don’t see what’s right in front of them. I’ve taken photos of butterflies and had someone ask what I was shooting, then, when I pointed it out, their face lit up with amazement. The beauty was always there, just waiting to be noticed.
It’s the same with health and wellness. I can post about natural options, but if someone doesn’t stop and really look, they may miss the message. Later, when they share their struggles, like breathing issues, I remind them that something as simple as mullein tea can help. Not only can I show you how to grow it for free, I’ll happily share it.
Sometimes we just need to slow down, look a little closer, and open ourselves to the beauty and healing that’s all around us. 🌿💚
