Today was one of those days. That I just needed to flee to the wilderness. To clear my head. To breathe wide open air. To soak up this January sun.
To tell you the truth of today, it was one of those where fact that I am 35 and not yet a Mom has me walking around with a mighty tender heart. Its these days that I find myself needing to avoid my regular cafes where moms gather. Needing to get offline big time. So that I did.
I headed out to a town just outside of the city called Deep Cove and went for a photo walk that turned into a big beautiful hike to a lookout and back. It was exactly what I needed to clear my head, to be in my body and to just be grateful for the life I have now, with space to create, to do my creative work and yes, to go on afternoon hiking adventures when I need them.
I bet at some point I’ll look back at this time and wish I had this kind of freedom. So this seemed like the best way to try to be in the beauty of life right now. To flee to the wilderness.
