What Nurtures Your Soul?


There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as if everything is. - Albert Einstein, physicist

I have written before about the incredible beauty of where my husband and I live. The surrounding mountains are like majestic arms, offering protection within their tree-covered embrace. The varied green textures of the trees, shrubs, ferns and other plants bring peace and healing to the deepest parts of my soul. I especially love the contrast between the deep green of the trees against the amazing blue of the sky when I look at the ridge line.

Living in the Pacific Northwest gives residents the opportunity to take advantage of varied vistas of tremendous beauty, all within a relatively short distance. Ocean or desert, mountain or valley, each is possible in easy day trips. We count ourselves fortunate, grateful, and blessed to live in the natural splendor that surrounds us.

What is it that makes you feel nurtured and refreshed? Life is short and we never know how long we have. Make time for the things that help you feel alive and energized.
