Beautiful! I also feel like I need to see the sky/nature. We have a lake nearby and if I don’t “check in” with the lake every couple days, I get antsy.

“And also very often, it’s gazing into the trees and up at the sky that makes the words visible again.” Yes! I have never been able to explain this phenomenon, but you did it perfectly.

I get anxious about gray days too. As a kid from Ohio, most of our winters sat gray for what felt like forever! I love the stretch of sky and sunshine on my face, and this post reminded me of that feeling...the yearning. I also adore this line: "So very often, I don’t know what to write, even though writing is one of those things that makes me feel alive (that makes me want to be alive?)." That makes me want to BE ALIVE. Yes!
