SLC31-W1 | THE GREEN JOURNEY | The Art of Observation.

To accomplish the challenge organised by @muzack1, I visited a school park which is closer to me. The school environment is very big and there is a particular spot where people go to, so they can memorise, meditate, and regain their lost strength. The place is surrounded by nature as it is a green space.

As I got to the place I met two people already relaxing at the place, one of whom was busy making phone calls, and the other person just sat down meditating and enjoying the natural air and calm surroundings.

The moment that I arrived at the green space, I put my phone on silent and put it inside my pocket, and spent at least 15 minutes quietly without paying attention to the people I met at the place.

I quietly observed the surroundings deeply turning my head around looking for something different. I looked up the trees, and the Leafs were shaking, blowing in the breeze, dropping some leaves that couldn't withstand the breeze.

Up in the sky, birds were flying up landing on the trees, and flying up making noises. Within the surrounding it was just four sounds that I heard the person talking on the phone, the birds flying over the trees, the wind, and distant traffic.

You can also hear the exact sound in the video.

At that moment, the temperature changed on my skin which I felt cold like something important had entered me because of how warm I felt. My mind wasn't carried away because I caught my mind telling myself it will happen which I was just focused and observant.

Before leaving the place I end it with a reflection by asking myself these questions:

  • What do I ignore that I usually notice?

  • Did my mind shut down or resist the silence?

In summary, my mental reset routine was amazing for me which I will keep doing once in a while.

Your presentation in this challenge is interesting. However, the sequence of photos and videos you shared doesn’t stand out as unique, so in this case, your message comes across as less engaging. Your photos still do not meet the requirements, and you need to focus on sharing something different in this challenge—elements that should be explained as clearly as possible, along with photos that are genuinely unique to attract others to view and read the posts you share.
