But this time I didn't allow myself to succumb. I instead chose to channel that energy through my lens. I grabbed my camera and took to nature.
The smell of sweet pine. The texture of crisp leaves against my finger tips. My senses seemed heightened.
I allowed myself to wholeheartedly submit to her healing powers. I bypassed norms and comfortable boundaries as I became one with mother earth right there in the bed of pine needles and red clay soil.
Exposed. Calm. And open to the beautiful creations all around me.Directed properly, those joyless, bleak moments can lend themselves to powerful inspiration and creativity. Use them.
