Friday 16th December
Day 16
We took a picnic and did a lovely reflective walk around the lake today.
The card I had received when we arrived was called NATURE; AND THE INSTRUCTION “TAKE A WALK . LET THE BEAUTY OF NATURE FEED YOU”
And that’s what I did today.
The Black Swans were close up on our side of Tuggerah Lake . They graze the wrck and reeds as do the cormorants and herons and ibis but they realise there is enough for all,
There is a poem here but it has not come as yet,
However sitting here , reflecting, watching the pelican, cormorants, black swans and lots of other birds on and around the lake demonstrates a peacefulness .
List of remembered birds on our walk to the lake today: ducks and cute ducklings, magpies, willy wag tails, butcher birds, native miners, ibis , swallows, wrens, raven, kookaburra, plovers and mudlarks .
Accepting each other and letting be is one way to peacefulness.
Live and let live.
