A lot has been changing in my life recently and it’s been really challenging! Earlier this week, I went up to the Inner Basin of the San Francisco Peaks to do some writing- i.e. processing. As I sat up there with my back resting against an aspen trunk, I realized how relevant a quote by John Muir was that a friend shared the day before: "When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the universe. One fancies a heart like our own must be beating in every crystal and cell, and we feel like stopping to speak to the plants and animals as friendly fellow-mountaineers. Nature as a poet, an enthusiastic workingman, becomes more and more visible the farther and higher we go; for the mountains are fountains— beginning places, however related to sources beyond mortal ken." 💚⛰💚 Here's to new beginnings! #PopulusTremuloides #aspen #JohnMuir #Muir #nature #mountains #reflection #life #connection #InnerBasin #SanFranciscoPeaks #Flagstaff #Arizona #hiking #writing #journaling (at San Francisco Peaks) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnxEgjflzGE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1hg8udvpsemj1
