Another shot from many years ago taken with the old 5MP Kodak.

After long day of hiking in the hot sun, I found a soothing place in the shade of a Bottlebrush Tree.

Sunset reflection in a pond/lake found in Chatham County Wetlands Preserve.

This spot was quite tricky because of the large radio/cell tower just to the left of frame (you can make out some of the wires on the left side of the image). The clouds behind the tower were certainly photo worthy, but the tower dominated the scene and made for poor images. This was the best of this shot on that evening.

Well, I hope you like it.

I escape into the great outdoors; where freedom’s soul forever roars.

Whenever I am sad or happy this song never fails me... <3

 

“My prayers, my tears, my wishes, fears, and lamentations, were witnessed by myself and heaven alone. When we are harassed by sorrows or anxieties, or long oppressed by any powerful feelings which we must keep to ourselves, for which we can obtain and seek no sympathy from any living creature, and which yet we cannot, or will not wholly crush, we often naturally seek relief in poetry—and often find it, too—whether in the effusions of others, which seem to harmonize with our existing case, or in our own attempts to give utterance to those thoughts and feelings in strains less musical, perchance, but more appropriate, and therefore more penetrating and sympathetic, and, for the time, more soothing, or more powerful to rouse and to unburden the oppressed and swollen heart.”

― Anne Brontë, Agnes Grey

Green River, Kanasket-Palmer State Park, Washington

  

I was unable to hike again this weekend but my mind and my soul were in need of some nature so I ventured out to a nearby state park, located on a beautiful stretch of the Green River. And there, as I sat in solitude on a rock, and immersed myself in the sight and sound of the river, I found what I was seeking. The endless flow of the river soothed and softened the sharp edges of the mind and restored the pieces of the soul that the world seems to wear away.

I’m notorious for my restless brain, always filled with racing thoughts that I find hard to switch off. Little Corgi has a zippy brain too, but he has an oddly calming effect on me. That supremely adorable face and Corgi smile, he’s deffo a precious little soul soother! So we will chill out here at home until we drift to dreamland where he will playfully chase butterflies, and I will watch him while drinking a margarita, and all will feel okay with the world. 💕🐶

Comfort isn't always a feeling of relief or consolation...

It can be felt or given in one single touch of kindness.

"A fisherman and his son are out on the sea at night. His son falls asleep while his father continues to sail. Soon, though, a soft call from the waves catches his attention. Numb and entranced, he solemnly wanders to the edge of the boat, embracing how the waves take him under.

 

The son, after a few hours, wakes up to see his father gone. He frantically looks over to see if he's fallen, and sees a woman watching him from below. She is more beautiful than Aphrodite herself, and had eyes that soothed even the most frightening of creatures. She smiles, and begins to sing her tune to the child. However, no matter how loud she sang or how melodic her voice was, the boy just stared at her quizzically. Confused, she reaches to the surface, asking him if he can hear her. The boy stares back at her, unsure of what she's saying, and only replies with hand gestures.

 

The mermaid now understands why he doesn't follow her call: he is deaf. Sweetly, she holds her arms out towards him, touching his ears gently. The child felt her fingers almost vibrate, and soon the boy could slowly start hearing a low rumble. Then, the distant sound of the water moving to and fro reached his ears. He smiles, amazed that he can hear for the first time in his life. He gestures a thank you to his mermaid friend, and she simply smiles back.

 

The beauty of the deep begins her call once more, seeing the child become fastened still in place. His eyes glazed over, and began walking closer to his helper. The mermaid continues her lulling tune, and warmly holds the child close, before dragging him to the depths."

I know, I do have a corny title, but that's what happens when you can't think about any. So suggestions are welcome. It was by the same lake as the previous picture toward the end of the day... these grass were moving from the gentle breeze and I knew it was time to head back. (I have taken quite a few pics which I suddenly ran into in my storage, so sorry to bore you with same/similar stuff)

The sound of water dancing over moss covered rocks is beyond soothing. When we visited the Hawaiian Tropical Bioreserve and Gardens on the Big Island of Hawaii I found myself wanting to take a seat and soak up all the peace and quiet.

I'm coming for you

When the sun goes down

I'm coming for you

When there's no one around

 

I come to your house

Break down the door

Girl, I'm shaking

I need more

 

There's only one way to soothe my soul

  

I'm coming for you

I need to feel your skin

I'm coming for you

To stop this crawling

 

I'm taking my place

By your side

I'm not leaving

Until I'm satisfied

 

There's only one way to soothe my soul

(There's only one way to soothe my soul)

 

I'm coming for you

My body's hungry

I'm coming for you

Like a junkie

 

I can't stop

Desire in me

I'm not waiting

Patiently

 

There's only one way to soothe my soul

When I hear of multiple days of rain in the forecast with the chance of some heavy precipitation, my mind goes to this spot in the city.

Cold but still evening at Porth Nanven with the softest colours of sunset. A bit of light catching the top of the stones giving some nice highlights

Just wanted to mention one thing about this image. Those streaks you see on the left side of the photograph are early morning sun rays filtering across the front of the waterfall.

crataegus pulcherrima, beautiful hawthorn, j c raulston arboretum, ncsu, raleigh, north carolina

 

Crataegus pulcherrima, whose name means "beautiful hawthorn" is a shrub up to 4 m tall, native to the southeastern United States. This species and those related to it that are classified in Crataegus series Pulcherrimae have been largely ignored since they were originally described in 1903, but warrant consideration as ornamental cultivated plants.

 

I go to nature to be soothed and healed,

and to have my senses put in order.
