Have you ever wondered how many times you’ve looked out a window? Too many to count. There are many things in life we just take for granted and windows are one of them. A window will separate us from our natural world: rain, dust, wind, cold, heat, sounds, while at the same time allowing us to feel like we are outdoors. Looking through a window can invite us to step outside of our comfortable homes and encounter nature. It was lightly raining as I took this image from the hotel lobby looking out into a courtyard. You can see a gazebo which was inviting me outside. And yes, I did get wet but enjoyed it.
