Today, I felt really anxious, the kind of anxiousness that makes me feel sick in my stomach. It robs all joy.
I came out here for a walk and to sit and watch the sunset. The magpies are warbling all around me and I took this photo of one sitting on a pole.
I won’t say that coming out here and sitting on the Bench made my anxiousness go away, but it definitely changes things somehow. It definitely kind of gets you out of that little closed, fearful place. Even if it’s only temporary, I’m sure it’s good for me.
