I ■"* * x-Aging Well with Cathy Graham Take in nature’s subtlety FEW THINGS are as rewarding as catching a vibrant sunrise, listening to the rain hit the porch roof or unwinding with the sunset as the day prepares for bed. Creating a peaceful outdoor space gives us an opportunity to connect and reflect the simplest most gratifying moments in life. Whether it is a modest porch swing for two, a field with no end in sight, or boat dock gently lapping the waves, the sounds and sights connect us to memories from the past and bring a hush to an overzealous mind. Follow a squirrel with your eyes and grin at his antics; it just takes a minute, a humble uncomplicated, unscripted moment in time. On a starry night, grab blankets and flashlights and watch for the first star to appear...and then another... and another. Count them until you can't count any more. Looking at the massive sky can remind us of how small problems can be when they are taken into perspective. Notice the changes every day in the garden and the flower pots. Growth and change are always happening even when we forget to look. Life is like that, too. It's always shifting and swaying, but we become unaware of it because we fail to slow down. The outdoors is a blank canvass with a non-adventurous side that is healing and subtle. The little things, like a buttercup held under the chin, are the big things. The movement of a bee, the feel of the warm earth under foot and the scent of freshly cut grass are all outside your door just waiting. No need to hurry. You might overlook the artistry of the harried spider in her sprawling web. Cathy Graham is director of the Graceful Aging Wellness Center at Bethlen Communities in Ligonier, Pa.
