Over the last few years I've come to realize that I have a very special relationship with the sun. For me, it is a serious source of inspiration. I'm not sure what it is about the sun, but I get very inspired by a lot of things related to it. Sunlight streaming through windows, dust dancing in sunlight, sunbeams on walls, the golden glow of the sun during 'magic hour'.. all of it just feels so good to experience. I constantly find myself noticing the sunlight coming in through our sliding doors and staring at it for awhile.
It's just so pretty to me. It feels so warm and inviting and comforting.
As science explains, sunlight also raises serotonin levels, thus improving our mood. Sometimes I wonder if my subconscious helps me to enjoy the sun because it knows it increases my mood. Whatever the reason, I've realized that sunlight is one thing I know I'll always love and always find beauty in. It's so simple, yet it can do so much for me. I'm very thankful for that.

It's so true. One of my favourite things is sitting in my bedroom in the late afternoon and waiting for the sun to reach the perfect angle so it shines through the trees and paints dappled sunlight and shade on my bedroom wall. X Jane http://janeheinrichs.blogspot.com
