It sounds like the perfect antidote to too-much-ness of a busy life and a crazy, disheartening world. Days like that one give us strength to continue. Seeing signs of hope in the rebirth of spring is something that resonates with me. Depending on the day, just connecting with that hope and the wonder of it all is enough to crack me open. I love how deep and mysterious the water looks. So many nuances of blue. Thank you for sharing your insights and your journey with us. xox
Beautifully written Manuela and I love the pacing interwoven with the photos, which are lovely in their own right. I especially love this line: Sometimes the faintest light reveals the greatest beauty. I too feel the need to get far away from it all and I think that's very healthy to do! Thank you for sharing your light.
Thank you for your eloquent words and beautiful, soulful photographs -- what a wonderful day off - good example of the benefits of slowing down - seeking simplicity - finding serenity.
Bonnie, thank you! Slowing down and simplifying are big goals in my life, and it is quite surprising to me how difficult it is to do, but it‘s always worth trying.
Manuela, what a wonderful reminder of life's lessons that are so easy to forget! You speak such elegant truths in each of your "Sometimes ..." statements, and together they form such a powerful collection. I also love the opening quote, and couldn't agree more.
I’ve just recently connected to your posts! Each and every one resonates so deeply within me! It’s as if you’re expressing my feelings where I have been unable to find the words. Thank you, Manuela!
100% and really nice images!
Thank you so much, Donn!

Thank you, Anne! I loved all the blues that day! It was kind of magical.
I love how your text and images resonate with each other. I feel so inspired, Manuela. Thank you!
That makes me happy! Thank you!
So glad you had a good day. Time to breathe and just be with “nature”. We all need those times!
Remember when I took the boys into “nature” and they stopped bickering immediately as soon as we got out?
And they always responded: “Why do we always have to go into “nature”?
:)
Oh yes I remember that very well!!
Beautifully stated (and shown). Glad you were able to take that time. It’s so important to really push pause.
Thank you!

Thank you. Means a lot coming from you! Yes, sometimes it is just too much to process.
Wonderfully written
Thank you!
Beautifully written and photographed Manuela...and so true. Taking a break in nature sounds like just what was needed to help you recover your centre.
Thank you so much, Lin! I appreciate it.
So, so true. Thank you, Manuela.
Thank you, Lee Anne!

So much truth in your words and so much beauty in your pictures.
Thank you!
Beautifully said, Manuela. And beautiful shots. You were in my backyard! I live near Superior and it is the best therapist.
Thank you Dan! It really is. Do you live in MN or Wisconsin?
Duluth!
Love Duluth!
I love a retreat, Manuela, even for just a day. This sounds just perfect. Sending love to you! 💛
Thank you, Ann! Appreciate you.
Simply Beautiful. I always love the deep blues and dark shadows you capture. 🖤📷
