I love sunset, especially sunset on the coast. The wet sand reflects the rocks in the sea, as well as the sky overhead. The horizon is layered with purple, rust, gold, cream, and the last of day's light glows outside of the encroaching shadows. It is quiet, peaceful, calm, reflective.

When you can't outrun the storm, you have to deal with being in the middle of it. And the more practice you have with difficult situations, the better off you'll be.

Summer on the beach: it's a time to walk and think and dream, to dabble in the surf, stroll barefoot in the sand, and then stop and look out, out, out into the vast expanse of the ocean's majesty. There are no walls or limitations. Is this what freedom looks like?

In autumn, the trees are joyous over their fall-themed wardrobe. Along a country road, it is as if they are waving at you, greeting your arrival, and inviting you to enjoy the journey along their road.

The river moves calmly through its landscape, not in any particular hurry to get where it's going because, even if the pace is leisurely, it will still, eventually, reach its destination. A good thing to remember when we're tempted to rush through our day.

The setting sun casts a pink glow on the hills in the background, while wildflowers in the field stand straight and tall before folding their blossoms for evening. The landscape invites you to lie down amidst the foliage, look up at the sky, and dream.

Light and shadow form a dappled pattern on a narrow dirt path, cutting its way through a forest of trees. It's not a smooth path, but at least it's relatively level, and for now, easy to follow. Around the bend, things may be different. Life's paths aren't freeways; they are most definitely paths.

It is rainy, but the couple in the secluded Italian alleyway do not notice because they have eyes only for each other. His fedora and her cloche hat give a retro, nostalgic feel, but the sense of romance is timeless.

@SteveHendersonFineArt@mastodon.social avatar

I enjoy cloudy, overcast days -- there is a sense of drama and intrigue in the play of light and shadow. As the sun pierces through the clouds, it casts its glow across the landscape, but not the entire landscape. Just parts, here and there, almost as if it were teasing.

On the bay, they were far enough away from the city to escape the noise and bustle, but close enough to watch its endless activity. It was a good perspective, one that allowed them to observe without being distracted.

It takes great courage to say both Yes and No.

To say Yes to adventure, creativity, hope, and living with joy and strength despite the uncertainty of the future.

To say No to that which your heart tells you is wrong, though the crowd around you shouts that it is right.

Neither is easy.

Summer. And childhood. There is time in each and freedom -- freedom from the schoolroom and its rules, and time to think and imagine and wonder. Even as adults, we experience summer, and can pick a flower, look closely at it, and dream.

@SteveHendersonFineArt@mastodon.social avatar

These are a few of my favorite things . . .

Tea, the ocean, and flowers -- all three are calming, reflective of nature's offerings, an invitation to slow down our incessant, efficient pace and simply . . . be for awhile.

Deep in the secluded forest there is silence and calm -- so much silence and calm that the ducks feel safe. This, this is what the term "green" means. It's not a political movement, it's nature's favorite color.

It feels good to get out and away, distancing ourselves from not only the noise of the "news," but the false reality of the digital world. Out in the real world, we feel the breeze on our face, the sunlight on our shoulders, and we hear the sound of our friend as we talk and laugh and solve the problems of the world.

It's not a yellow brick road, and it doesn't lead to the Emerald City: it's better than that. It's a quiet, winding path through country fields, leading to and through a place of peace where you can stop and think awhile.

When I am below in the valley, I look up, and I see the landscape around me in a certain way. But when I stand at the heights and look down, I see the same landscape in a different way. Perspective matters.

Chronic fear and debilitating panic turn good people into bad ones. We cannot treat others as we wish to be treated ourselves when we insist that they believe and act exactly as we do.

She runs through her day in the simple joy of being a child -- pretending, playing, imagining -- all the things that children do so well, and should be allowed to do with freedom. Let your inner wild child run free this week and go ahead, think a thought that defies convention!

When I was a kid, our calendars had holidays marked out in red: a red letter day was a special one, worthy of standing out from the rest of the week.

Some days spontaneously turn into red letter days, regardless of what the calendar says. These are days of joy and freedom, enjoyed with family and friends.

"I'm away from the office right now.

"I didn't bring my phone. Just some drinking water and lunch.

"Thought I'd take a long walk out someplace quiet, remote, away from all the noise so I could just . . . think.

"It feels good out here, peaceful. Amazing how nature just keeps living and thriving through the years, isn't it?"

Nature is flamboyant in a way that is not overpowering or offensive, but rather, joyous and inclusive.

"Come see me!" she invites. "Step out into my landscapes and enjoy the season with me -- beauty is so much more satisfying when it is shared."

The earth. It's an amazing place that we have all been invited, as guests, to share in and benefit from.

Maybe it's because it's such a deliciously warm spring where I live that my mind and spirit fly over to the ocean.

The first thing I do is kick off my shoes. The next thing is to walk straight into the surf and let it play around my feet. And then I begin walking.

What a perfect, perfect way to spend the day.

Most of the canyon was in shadow, tucked away for the night, its nocturnal creatures lightly stirring and preparing for activity.

But the humans were mostly gone, in their tents or campers or at the resort, and for the moment, this moment, there was a silence as deep and profound as the landscape itself.
