Tumbleweeding
Nature is spitting out lessons every second. When I'm able to check out of my own head and look around--at this beautiful earth I get to live on--I can literally hear the plants talking to me.

You have to talk to yourself...and you have to do it nicely. At first when I talk about talking to yourself, people think that it is nuts, but the reality of the situation is we talk to ourselves constantly (through our thoughts) and most of us talk to ourselves terribly.
