A Day in the Garden

Last Sunday, I dedicated the day to my small garden. As the sun peeked through the clouds, I stepped outside, greeted by the soft hum of bees and the gentle rustle of leaves. The garden was a riot of colors, with red roses blooming in one corner and purple petunias adding a pop of color nearby.
I started by pruning the overgrown branches of my fruit trees. It was a delicate task, but seeing the trees look tidier made me feel accomplished. Next, I turned to the vegetable patch. I carefully pulled out the weeds that had sprouted among the lettuce and carrots. The fresh smell of soil filled my nostrils as I worked.
After the gardening chores, I sat on a bench in the middle of the garden. I sipped on a glass of iced tea, enjoying the sight of butterflies fluttering from flower to flower. It was a peaceful moment, away from the noise of the city. This day in the garden not only allowed me to take care of my plants but also provided a serene space for relaxation.

The Art of Letting Go

Holding onto grudges, regrets, or past mistakes weighs us down. Letting go is an art that frees the mind and heart. It doesn't mean forgetting but accepting what cannot be changed.

A Day of Bird - Watching

Last Sunday, I ventured out for a day of bird - watching in a nearby nature reserve. Eager to spot some feathered friends, I packed my binoculars and a guidebook, then set off early in the morning. As I entered the reserve, the melodious chirping of birds filled the air. The first sighting was a bright - blue jay, flitting among the branches. Its vibrant plumage was a sight to behold. Using my binoculars, I could see the intricate patterns on its wings. Moving deeper into the reserve, I came across a small pond. Here, a family of ducks was swimming gracefully. The ducklings followed their mother closely, creating ripples in the calm water. I also spotted a heron standing motionless at the edge of the pond, patiently waiting for its prey. Throughout the day, I encountered various species, from the tiny hummingbird hovering around the flowers to the majestic eagle soaring high in the sky.
