Looking Outside

It's been so crazy busy here that I haven't had time to post much, but when I saw today's Shutter Sister post on windows, I couldn't resist.

I love windows - they separate yet include, protect yet open up. They bring what's outside in and what's inside out. They reflect yet transmit. And most of all, they bring in that special light to illuminate the darkness.

Here's a recent photo I took of what I saw through the window one morning during a PiYo class (that's a Pilates - Yoga fusion class that just started taking).
228/365+1 Picture Window #prairie
Every side angle pose allowed me to take in the abundance of the earth and vastness of the sky.

Breath in, breath out. Enjoy the view outside.

    I love beautiful windows too - unfortunately I´m having quite plain and boring ones at home... But at least I can look out! :-)

    breathing is a good thing. Dave, my husband, died last November and breathing has been so hard to remember to do. sounds stupid, I know, but, sometimes, I find myself gulping air because I've been unconsciously holding my breath.
    breath in.
    breath out.
