Day 18

Take out the headphones and embrace the silence.

I’m so grateful the ground was hard enough to go for a trail run today.

Half way through, I had the sudden urge to take out my headphones.

I’m so glad I did.

It was beautiful. It was like my mind suddenly just emptied of all the bullshit, and I was left with the purest of sounds. The whistling of the air, the squelching of the mud, the flock of birds over head.

I love music. It can take you to another place. But sometimes, the most beautiful landscapes are right in front of our eyes. We just need to turn down the volume to hear and see it.
