The Background:
I will be going on a trip to Catalina Island for the next few days. I am excited to be able to immerse myself in nature and disconnect a bit from the day-to-day grind. I hope to return with many new scenes to share with you all!
(The shot above is from a previous photography trip just outside of Zion National Park and was taken by Seth Hamel of Enlighten Photography - who I cannot recommend more highly!)
The Message:
I think it is so important that we each recognize the activities that feed our souls and give ourselves the time that we need to engage in those activities. We all have so many responsibilities in life, and we can often feel torn between our various commitments and busy schedules. Often our own needs and our self-care are the first to fall by the wayside. Despite the tremendous value in being there for others, we must also recognize that we are worth investing in as well – and that this investment will pay dividends in our ability to sustain our own growth, and to create and maintain meaningful relationships.
I want to thank my family for giving me the opportunity to nourish my soul and reconnect by disconnecting.
