Your opening and closing quotations are classic and timely, as is your phrase about getting off the speeding hamster wheel of life. Simon and Garfunkel reminded us to, “slow down, you move too fast. You’ve got to make the morning last.“

Quite a part from the client consciousness aspect of your message, you have once again donate your fantastic job of urging us to reconnect with ourselves in nature, and to take pleasure in the simplest, most mundane tasks.

Thank you, dear Celina, for reminding us what really matters in this world.

Loved this, which brought back more than a few memories. Always the frugal Yankee, my mother air dried the laundry until my brother and I left for college (late 1970's). Only then did they loosen the purse strings and indulge in the unseemly luxury of not only a dryer but a color television set. All that frugality actually served them well - in his final years Dad fell frequently, once into the television set before landing, along with the TV, on top of Mother. If that little television had been any bigger she might not have made it.
