Goal for the Day: Enjoy Your Landscape

Antique English Landscape, from my collection
Our eyes need a break from the strain we place them under every day. From the flickering light of monitors and televisions to the harsh beams of florescent lighting, our vision is constantly assaulted. If you get a chance today, take a few minutes to sit somewhere outside in the shade.

Perhaps your office has a courtyard where you can take a break. Or, even when you get home tonight, you can sit in your own garden. Enjoy the natural light and watch how it plays against the forms of the plants and terrain of your landscape. Reminding ourselves of the beauty of nature is healthy and rejuvenating. Your eyes and your spirit will thank you.
