Texas : Walker County : Huntsville: Another Beautiful Elkins Lake Sunset

Another Beautiful Sunset in Elkins Lake!

You know, I love my Keller Williams Office Spaces in Huntsville and Conroe, but there's something about working from my home office every now and then.  Home-Made Coffee, 

tea with fresh herbs from my herb garden.       YUMMM...

And the Elkins Lake Sunsets from our porches--they sure are Pretty!

Pretty Relaxing too!  Now, don't get me wrong, I am not relaxed all that often.  But a few days from Christmas, taking time to "decompress" a little is a GOOD thing!

And how could this view NOT have a somewhat sedating effect?!

SO, Trying to NOT lose your mind in all of the Holiday Hustle Bustle????

Here's a "Self Diagnostic" to see just how you are doing with that endeavor.

1. Have you taken time to appreciate beauty today? 

2. Have you stopped for JUST One (1) minute to breathe deeply---taking a LOW breath and exhaling through your mouth SLOWLY.  (THIS Works!---just did it, again)

3. You,ve heard all of your life, probably, to take time to "stop and smell the roses."  I know this is usually intended in the "figurative" sense.  But, how about taking it literally? 

Pick up an inexpensive arrangement of fresh flowers--or just a single stem-- at the grocery store or Wal-Mart, next time you are there. 

Then, smell that bouquet or single flower.  Close your eyes---imagine where that fragrance could co-exist in the world.

 Maybe in the rolling hills of Tuscany, or on a street vendor's fresh flower cart in "Gay Paris." 

Let you mind wander for a minute-----a mental vacation!!!

 Beauty feeds the soul. 

          "Eat up, y'all"  That nourishment is calorie free!

So, what are you doing tomorrow?

Why not---Take in a beautiful Sunset where you live. 

 Then, remember.................................b-r-e-a-t-h-e
