I just had to get away and be alone by ludwigsdiana

I just had to get away and be alone

so I got into the car and went on a four hour round trip to the canola fields. I just needed some time to myself and be surrounded by nature.

It did me the world of good and I am much more relaxed now.

As I mentioned, I will be without a laptop until Sunday, so commenting will be difficult. I am going to spend the weekend with my sister and will also not have much time.

Thanking you all for your positive, encouraging words and thoughts. I should be up and running again by Monday, hopefully feeling revitalised.

Looks like the perfect place to gather your thoughts and recharge your energy batteries. Take care. xx

Wonderful scene and colours!
Diana, it's too bad to have to go through tough times. The only thing you can do is not question the reason. There is no reason to it. Things just happen. Don't search for fault or answers, as there are none. I know it is easier said than done.

Beautiful fields, nature is soothing. Lovely to go and be with family, take care.
August 25th, 2022

It looks like a good place to be alone. I love the way those yellow lines almost merge.

Next weekend, hopefully, I will be there - Namaqualand flowers and canola fields on the N7. 3 days of photography

This is so beautiful! Sometimes getting away is the best thing to do for you. I lost my best friend to leukemia 11 years ago. It was the hardest thing I have ever been through. She is always on my mind, and I still miss her dearly. All I can say is that time does heal the pain. It just doesn't seem like it right now. I hope you have a lovely time with your sister.
August 26th, 2022  
truly beautiful photo ... Hope all is well.
August 27th, 2022  
@pcoulson @vernabeth @ninaganci @pamalama @lynnz Thanks for the comforting words 😊
August 27th, 2022  
Looks like a great place for some mental rest and recovery, and a little spiritual healing. Enjoy your time with your sister
