Home and Sunsets

A picture taken from my Instagram

I took this picture on my front stoop after a busy day and had just gotten back from dinner. I was only home for the weekend, but watching the sunset was perfect and made me so excited for this summer. In Seattle, you can't just watch the sun set from anywhere. Back home that is totally possible, and watching it from the front stoop is something I have always taken for granted. My summer will be filled with work and social obligations but I want to try to watch the sun set everyday. Nature is an amazing thing and I feel like current day we get so caught up in social media, and consumerism that enjoying nature is not taken advantage of enough. This summer I want to go on hikes, watch the sun rise, swim in the river, play in the park, watch the sunset, and enjoy it all, not worrying about anything.
