View

I do love those times when we are taking off on a plane and you get that aerial view of the world beneath us - not that lately I have had the pleasure - but hopefully soon we can all be planning fun trips away if you haven’t already. When the sky is clear, the best views you can have are often over England, as the country and landscape is a totally different array of views. From the spalling cities and villages to the ploughed fields looking like a massive patchwork quilt. Then the hills and mountains, the woods, rivers, and streams, in contrast to the concrete jungle of roads and motorways, like the veins and arteries that travel through our bodies. Our world is amazing and often we don’t always stop to take stock of the bigger picture of what this actually looks like. This is just like how amazing our minds are and the diversity of what they hold, also how different we are in different aspects of ourselves and our lives. We are this ever-changing landscape and can go from the hub of an inner-city to the tranquillity of a hilltop. But what is even more fascinating is that we have the pleasure of all of this, whereas, unless we are a pilot in our daily life, we only get a small view of the world that we live in. Also, for most of us, we only get to change our homes and gardens not the world around us, whereas in our minds we get to change the whole landscape of who we are.
