This morning I read this blog : http://catholicyoungwoman.blogspot.com/2011/08/where-has-beauty-gone.html and I really loved the phrase the writer used - "soul-refreshing". That's exactly how I feel when I go on walks in beautiful wooded areas,around lakes,beautiful churches,adoration..etc. Today I was walking on a wooded path around a lake. The wind was gently blowing and everything was just so peaceful. Everything was just so beautiful. I think "soul-refreshing" is the perfect way to describe it. It's a time I can rest and no matter what my worries are it always refocuses my mind on God.
