“The frail, yellow sun creeps across the wooden floorboards whispering that it’s time to rise, to wake up, to begin the day. But I ignore it. I turn over and snuggle deeper into my flannel sheets. Just five more minutes, I think. The world can wait for five more minutes.”

What is your favorite thing to do during the winter season?
Cuddle with my dog with a cup of coffee and just breath…
Nothing is more soothing to me then lighting a fire in the fireplace, lighting candles and just sitting in the quiet.
I’m collating with Bella Grace words and pictures, turning them into my own. Bella Grace inspires my blog, “Diary of a Mindful Nature Lover.”
Winter is such a magical time of year. We turn inwards, we contemplate, we dream big dreams, and by spring we are rearing to go. Winter is full of candles and tea, warm blankets and soft jazz. Winter is magical indeed.
