Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under the trees on a summer’s day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time.
[John Lubbock]
Do this: Lie on the grass under the trees or listen to the murmur of the water or watch the clouds float across the sky.
Believe it is not a waste of time.
Write about it.

There is beauty in well tended gardens. I like the wild nature in our summer house garden. https://justforamonth.blogspot.com/2022/07/let-wild-flowers-grow.html
