There’s nothing like a misty morning to contemplate deep thoughts and muse about life with a good friend. Maybe it’s the “melancholic” artist in me, but I’ve always been drawn to dreary, cool days–mostly because they’re great for reflecting and thinking. They bring a sense of peace and silence in an otherwise hustle and bustle world.
This morning was one of those days, and I shared the stillness with a friend (and Astin of course!) as we walked around the National Arboretum. I love the fact that although I live in a big city, there’s still places like this where I can enjoy nature’s raw beauty. And while I love sunshine and blue sky days, it’s nice to embrace something a little more mysterious every now and then.
