How about a question that is humanizing and unites us in one of the Joys of living we can all still share? Pictures are welcome, but not required
I find that even the smallest touches of nature, a ray of golden sunshine reaching for me, a sunrise, sunset, rainbow, birds, mountains, trees, streams uplift my soul and help me get out of my self absorption with PD and to remember to enjoy being alive in This Moment, Now

I love nature and wish people would respect it more.
I have always found great solace in nature.
@GinkgoLover- such lovely words in your post, it was a pleasure to read it.
I am fortunate to live on the edge of a National Park and the magnificent Hawkesbury River, in Australia.
Daily , I find peace and joy in the bush and trees , wildlife and birds that surround us and some times don’t see, but usually hear . It’s so peaceful and relaxing to gaze up into the trees and to see and hear Cockatoos, Rainbow Lorikeets, King Parrots and Kookaburras. We have a flock of around 40 Cockatoos that arrive twice a day for feeding. When we are outside there is usually a few sitting in the Frangapani tree watching me and calling.
I’m feeling so blessed

All I have to do is keep both my eyes and mind open - there is such a wealth of nature it is hard to miss.
@GingkoLover:I just look out my bedroom window and see a smallish tropical tree, which reminds me of living in a very forgiving climate. Spring comes early here and there are daffodils, tulips, azaleas blooming all around me. I am truly blessed.
Sometimes, I sit with my coffee early in the AM, with few sounds except birdsong.
The birds alternately sing, mate, make nests and fight for territory, but mostly they sing. Lessons for all of us, yes?
