    It's so easy to not count your blessings in the bustle of day to day.  Workdays wear me out and I'm even busier on the oh, so short weekends.  This is the most difficult of the challenges I've picked so I guess I better start trying harder to make it a habit.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Nature Spend Time Outside
    Rachel Carson said that we need the beauty and mysteries of the natural world for our spiritual and emotional development. Does that ring true for you? What are the implications for a culture that spends most of its time indoors?

    It definitely rings true.
