#Gratitude30 Day 12's prompt is: What (or who) uplifts you

Nature, with all of its beauty and energy, lifts my spirits on a daily basis. There is much research now about the healing power of being in nature - amongst trees or bodies of water, about the effect of listening to the birds, and learning to work with the cycles of nature. Have you observed any effects of being in nature?

In thinking about today's prompt I also thought about my Guru who is my teacher, guide, and friend. Through his teachings, I aspire to become the most authentic version of myself. Who lifts your spirits? Who do you learn from or who do you enjoy spending time with?
