This, dear internet, is Glen Lyon or Gleann Lìomhann in Gaelic and is the longest Glen in Scotland.
With a name similar to that of the king of beasts, this is truly a royal glen.
Where mighty glaciers carved their way through the ancient mountains and hills of the land Scotland once was, now meanders the river Lyon peacefuly as a faint reminder of the forces that were once at work here, forming the landscape.
It’s vistas like this that should put you, human being, back to earth, with your two feet on the ground.
You are not that important.. Just a speck, a grain, a section of time, passing by.
But yet, it looks as if our race scars the planet more than the glaciers of times past have done. Those mighty ice rivers took their time carving out this beautiful landscape for us to behold and what do we do with it? We consume.. Consume more than we need. In only the past century so much nature has been sacrificed to still our unsupressable hunger for more that we are now almost on a path of no return.
So human being.. Take some time to contemplate on your behavior. Try to restore to the equilibrium that you see in this landscape. Don’t consume until there is nothing left.
And the seasons they go round and round And the painted ponies go up and down We’re captive on the carousel of time We can’t return, we can only look behind From where we came And go round and round and round In the circle game
You think someone is cute? That their dress is lovely? That they have a lovely piercing? Tell them that and then run into the night! If someone stole a few seconds of your time, let them know that they’re charming in a way. It costs nothing.
Carry a tiny bag of oats with you. Feed some birds every once in a while. Chip chip chip
Rearrange your room/house. Keep yourself on your toes with the rearrangements~
Have a jar with a sticky note (with a goal or sth that requires money) and put coins and change in there. Feel like it’s the 2000'a again and you’re in a Disney movie or sth.
Carry a pocket dictionary with you everywhere. Learn 1-2 words whenever you have time.
Want to keep people away? Be very specific. “I drink very wet water”, “i need to walk there with my own legs”, “i need some potatoes that grew under the earth for this soup” etc. Watch them keep their distance.
