Getting back with Nature

So I haven't done any blogs in a while because I thought I haven't had anything fun or exciting to blog about, But I did forget that I have gotten back to Nature recently which was quite enjoyable being able to take in all the beauty of what the Lord has given us. I visited Lamington National Park/O'Reillys last weekend which was really lovely, it is a great place to meditate and relax and be one with nature. OR take a very long hike up and down the mountain through the Forrest. On top of the mountain you can experience all these beautiful coloured birds come and land on your arms, shoulders and head, if you have a bit of bird seed in your hands they will flock to you, or if you are like me and my friend you just pretend you have something in your hands and they will be fooled for a few moments. There are also about a million Bush Turkeys up there, they are the fattest ones I have ever seen, looks like the tourists feed them pretty well, I was thinking if I ever want a good Christmas Dinner I should take a Trip up there :-)

They also have a Tree top walk, we didn't get to go on it this time round but I remember going on it when I was younger. My friend and I went on a hike that went for roughly 3-4 hours, it was a long way but it was great exercise. And I am sure there are shorter ones for those who don't think they could go for that long. Also It would have been better in summer as we could have gone for a swim at the bottom of the hike, as there was a giant pool of rushing clear water, it looked beautiful. There are also many hikes there that have waterfalls.

As you are driving up the mountain it weaves and turns and towards the top it is so Amazing, there are trees the cover both sides of the roads, it feels like you are in a Fairy Land! I was just waiting for a little fairy or pixie to come flying out of the trees.

On our drive we were hoping to find other animals such as Kangaroos.. To begin with all we saw was a dead one on the side of the road,

We did manage to see a group of 3, Big medium and little tiny one but as we were trying to get a photo, an inconsiderate car behind us wouldn't stop but drove up to them stopped.. and then scared them off while we were trying to take a picture, such a shame as it would have been a great shot too.

But one other great thing that you will find on your travels up the winding mountain is a LAMA FARM! They are so cute, I wanted to take a baby one home with me. And I got a little excited about seeing them :-)

Anyway it is a great day out and a fun experience if you ever have a free day to get back in touch with nature.

Probably the only person on Earth that actually makes me feel good about myself.

India Arie, This song really has done a lot for me, I use to play it over and over again and still do. She is such a free spirit, I wish I could be more like that.

Video Lyrics :-
Sometimes I shave my legs and sometimes I dont
Sometimes I comb my hair and sometimes I wont
Depend on how the wind blows I might even paint my toes
It really just depends on whatever feels good in my soul
I'm not the average girl from your video
And I ain't built like a supermodel
But, I learned to love myself unconditionally
Because I am a queen
I'm not the average girl from your video
My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes
No matter what I'm wearing I will always be India aria
When I look in the mirror the only one there is me
Every freckle on my face is where its supposed to be
And I know our creator didn't make no mistakes on me
My feet, my thighs, my lips, my eyes;
I'm lovin what I see Im not the average girl from your video
And I ain't built like a supermodel But,
I learned to love myself unconditionally
Because I am a queenIm not the average girl from your video
My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes
No matter what Im wearing I will always be india aria
Am I less of a lady if I dont wear pantyhose?
My mama said a lady aint what she wears but, what she knows
But, Ive drawn a conclusion, its all an illusion, confusions the name of the Game
A misconception, a vast deception Somethings gotta change
Dont be offended this is all my opinion
Aint nothing that Im sayin law
This is a true confession of a life learned lesson I was sent here to share wit Yall
So get in where you fit in go on and shine Free your mind, nows the time
Put your salt on the shelfGo on and love yourself cuz everythings gonna be all right
Im not the average girl from your video
And I aint built like a supermodel
But, I learned to love myself unconditionally
Because I am a queenIm not the average girl from your video
My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes
No matter what Im wearing I will always be india aria
Keep your fancy drinks and your expensive minks
I dont need that to have a good time
Keep your expensive car and your caviar
All I need is my guitar
Keep your crisp style and your pistol
Id rather have a pretty piece of crystal
Dont need your silicon I prefer my own
What God gave me is just fine
Im not the average girl from your video
And I aint built like a supermodelBut,
I learned to love myself unconditionally
Because I am a queenIm not the average girl from your video
My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes
No matter what Im wearing I will always be india aria

The other Artist I really appreciate would be Ben Harper

All of his songs are just so amazing and pure
