someone else’s eyes

Happy Place, Happy Space

My previous outing with Nature Loving Friend was at one of her favourite green spaces. This week, I took her to one of my much-loved urban routes.

Despite being so close to a residential area, she still managed to encounter nature in all its cuteness.

This family of smooth coated otters came out of the waterway to sunbathe in a residential parking lot.

Thinking back on how fun it was to experience a familiar place through her wonder, I am imagining a kinder & invigorating world if we just took time to view our world through someone else’s eyes. With this in mind, I hope you enjoy this thought-provoking music video from Whale City.

Reading your Joyful Posts brings me to my happy place. I hope having them in one place makes it easier for you to find when you need a bit of happy therapy, too.
