Being outdoors, surrounded by nature, has helped me regain hope, faith in life, and personal space for myself. I’ve decided that after encountering natural beauty, my day already contains at least one highlight. This keeps me going through an impactful grieving process, working, and lovingly caring for our children, who always exude lively energy and have their immediate needs. Every day is a fresh start, and nature reinforces this by presenting new vistas and life forms, growth, and natural marvels each day.
