Empty mall. Isn’t it nice to observe a space that’s usually loud & alive, when it’s silent & at rest? I personally find a sense of peace in that. It’s also a subtle reminder (if you’re someone like myself who finds a lesson in everything), that everyone needs a break eventually. Remind yourself that you can’t be on go-mode 24/7. You won’t feel motivated 24/7. Don’t feel bad if there are days where you feel no inspiration. That’s normal & okay. I understand that in this society, our lives are designed in a way where we “live around the clock” (meaning that our weekdays & day-to-day tasks are - to a certain degree - already written & planned, right down to the minute. We always have somewhere to be & something to do at a certain date/time), so it’s difficult to feel like you’re in control of your own time. However, if you’re able to, try going a day without checking your phone/clock/social-media. You need it. You’ll realize that time (though non-existent) is very slow, calm & full of possibilities. You’ll also find that some of your “problems” don’t even exist - they were created as a result of overthinking. At the mall, when the hour of closing arrived, it cleared quickly & that’s when my younger brothers & I found a very large version of “connect-4” & “jenga”. We stayed longer to play - it was really fun! #arizona #mall #boardgames #connect4 #jenga #play #architecture #mentalhealth #health #happy #grateful #meditation #explore #planet #earth #peace #learn #live #travel #photography #travelphotography #discover #reels #tiktok #fyp #foryou #foryoupage #trending #dior #bottegaveneta

Kauai, Hawaii. This was actually years ago - it was 2017 & I was 17. I experienced life-changing events during my time on that stunning island that the way I viewed life was forever changed, for the better. I was in a confused rut that year of my life & I genuinely felt that the only thing that could help, was to change my surroundings for a while. (Btw, it wasn’t like I was lacking anything in my life - like love from friends/family, or anything I needed - so to pinpoint a cause for my feeling that way simply isn’t possible.) Though at the time I ABSOLUTELY enjoyed being there, there were moments in which I wasn’t as present as I could’ve been, due to the mental blur I was working through. When you feel confused (or down) you won’t view life as grand as it truly is. That just goes to show how it doesn’t matter if everything in your life is made of diamonds, rainbows & gold - if your mental state isn’t right, none of it matters. A quote by Jim Carrey: “I wish everyone could get rich & famous & do everything they ever dreamed of so they can see that it’s not the answer.” My time there was unforgettable, & I'm forever grateful. #kauai #hawaii #island #tropical #travel #helicopter #bluehi #topography #mountains #ocean #beach #wanderlust #vacation #dream #explore #nature #bucketlist #planet #earth #peace #liveyourlife #grateful #photography #travelphotography #discover

Danish countryside 👌🏻 When I traveled to Denmark 🇩🇰, I explored the countryside first. I’m glad I did, because I got to see its more authentic, genuine side - it’s marvelous. Hiking at that Ice-Age Landscape that’s seen toward the end of the video was definitely one of my favorite hikes to date. The place is very beautiful & the fact that people are super friendly & helpful is the cherry on top. #denmark #countryside #europe #travel #vacation #nature #calm #happy #wanderlust #bucketlist #animals #cow #sheep #bird #hiking #ocean #beach

Denmark 🇩🇰 was one of my most recent travel destinations (outside of the US 🇺🇸). I didn’t capture much of my time there, as it was never my intention to even try (I didn’t take my camera with me, for that reason). Looking back (of course) I wish I would have, only because of all the marvelous things I remember seeing & experiencing while there. The ability to reminisce with something other than just my memory as a tool, would be nice. There were spontaneous moments, however, in which I did record & take pictures. I’m glad I did. Also, I had never ridden on a train/metro/subway prior to visiting Denmark, so it’s the first place I ever got to do so. Honestly, it was so cool - they go so fast! I for sure had too much fun experiencing that. I really enjoyed my time spent in that beautiful country, & I’ll most likely return one day. #denmark #copenhagen #nyhavn #nordhavn #konditagetlüders #architecture #danish #europe #nordic #scandinavia #train #metro #subway #escalator #veganrestaurant #veganfood #vegan #travel #vacation #discover #explore #learn #live

Glowing Cacti 🌵 • I hope this short video allows your psyche to breathe & awakens your curiosity… Alluring illuminations, enticing sounds, wise cacti & fresh air… Pause in this moment & observe… I believe that for someone to reach their optimal creative potential, they should frequently surround themselves with beautiful scenery - whatever that may be - the kind that gets your brain juices flowing & gives you butterflies… Thanks for being here. You’re special. • In the background, amidst the music, you’ll hear people’s voices - people talking. But did you notice how it didn’t stray your attention away from the music, nor the illuminated cacti? Their miniscule chatter didn’t deter you from being dialed into what you were observing, BECAUSE you found it so enchanting. I think that’s how we should (emphasis on “should” because it isn’t always easy) live our day-to-day lives. We mustn’t allow the small ‘chatter’ of irrelevant things to distract us from being fully present with whatever task we have at hand. We must find the grandeur in all that we do, & marvel at all that we observe. Remember that life is grand - just look around. #cacti #cactus #desert #music #meditation #psyche #brain #earth #nature #explore #discover #illumination #think #relax #love

Owl 🦉 • I come across them frequently while out on walks. As seen above, an owl is aggressively chirping at me to keep me away from its territory (even though I’m walking on a public sidewalk meant for humans - I’m not intentionally trespassing its home, FYI). They’ll chirp at me as I’m walking past, minding my business. I never record them doing this (to avoid upsetting them with the flash), but tonight I did. I thought it’d be nice to share such a beautiful act that happens in nature. Some facts about owls: - They’re nocturnal - they become more active at night (to avoid the daytime heat & predators, to mate & to hunt (their prey is generally more readily available & also nocturnal) - They’re hunted by snakes, squirrels, hawks, eagles, raccoons, foxes, wildcats, etc… (they’re at the high-end of the food chain & thus don’t have many natural predators) - There are about 250 species of owls, & they live on every continent except for Antarctica - Their flexible necks allow for 270 degree turns each way - Sensitive hearing - the feathers on their facial disks (flat, heart shaped face) collect sound, just as a satellite dish collects signals - Excellent binocular vision - during the night they can see clearly for about a mile with the light of a single candle - Have very sharp & powerful talons (useful for catching & devouring prey) - Their vocalizations include: hoot, chirp, whistle, bark, growl, scream, shriek, coo, cry & hiss - They hoot/vocalize to communicate, express fear, mark territory & keep other species away - They sleep for about 12-17 hours per day - The place they rest is called a “roost”, & they do so in a standing position - (they generally roost alone, but some species roost communally) #nature #owl #bird #strigiformes #raptor #chirp #whistle #hoot #foodchain #nocturnal #night #earth
