a breather

apologies for running a bit behind on this month's calendar... it seems to be a habit of late with the list of things-to-do growing, but somehow time doesn't seem to be growing with it! as said recently to a friend, we can be busy, but that doesn't mean we're stressed, and rightly so. the old adage of if you want something done, get a busy person to do is not an understatement; there is a sense of productivity and accomplishment in just getting things done.

in saying all that, it's important to take time out for a breather and escape a bit. i managed to steal some time away to lie on the beach and be lulled to sleep by the waves... hmm it was much needed.

speaking of escapes, this picture was taken in the south island of new zealand, just by mirror lake. it was a little too cloudy and breezy to see a perfect reflection on the lake, so we just decided to take in the peaceful surrounding fields before heading to the glacier. breathe in...
