Journal #17

There were many times that I have bonded with nature. A few years back my friends, Ainsley, Melissa, and I would go out on the warm summer nights and we would lay out on the driveway and we would stargaze. For hours and hours we would just lay in the driveway at one of our three houses and we would just lay there and stare up at the stars. I felt as if I was one with the stars and the sky. It was very very relaxing and time seemed to fly by. Other times I felt I was bonding with nature was times when my mother and I would spend hours and hours on end planting all kinds of plants in the spring to make her garden look nice. Every year pretty much we would do this because when my mom was a kid she would do these things with her grandma. She really cared about her garden and how it looked. We would go out and we would buy all kinds of flowers, shrubs, and other kinds of plants. We would then go home and we would plant all the things we had bought. This would seriously take hours. All day, but we would get a tan by staying out all day and planting so that was always a plus. Nature is very nice. Nature is a wide a ray of things. I also remember when I was little I would set my alarm to the nature sounds when I fell asleep. I would stay awake and just relax and listen to the nature sounds. That was a way to bond with nature because every night when I fell asleep I would just lay there and listen to nature sounds as I was falling asleep. Nature is a beautiful peaceful and relaxing things. I think now i want to bring back my nature alarm clock and as I fall asleep I can do that.
