Look Under Foot

A simple Friday message for the upcoming stellar weekend: embrace the nature that surrounds you. Look under foot. Some of the closest places to your doorstep can offer such stunning beauty. Get inspired in some of our gifted treasures, our state parks and take a moment to appreciate the day. John Burroughs ends this Friday’s post with his thoughtful prose.

“The lesson which life repeats and constantly enforces is "look under foot."
You are always nearer the divine and the true sources of your power than you think.
The lure of the distant and the difficult is deceptive.
The great opportunity is where you are.
Do not despise your own place and hour.
Every place is under the stars, every place is the center of the world.”
