This scene plops you right at one of meanjins infamous parties under the beautiful bridges here. It’s sunset, shoes are off, and the sound of tiny little waves are heard in the background of joyous laughs and beautiful music to match. An upbeat, contagious energy, the beauty that sunset can fill you with. A reminder each day is renewed, as are we. The warmth from the sun disappearing, only visible on the tip of the highest trees. We dance. We celebrate. We definitely owe some admiration for nature being a part of the entire memory being made.

We’re outside, with friends. We are sat on a soft cosy picnic rug that’s cushioned by thick green grass. Laying down as if it were a bed, but letting our bare feet hang off the end onto the cool grass, grounding us. Sitting beneath a large picture-esque tree at the park. The tree is offering it’s shade, it’s entertainment of birdie vistitors. Ants crawl over the rug but we ignore them. As the tree breathes, we do too. Taking in it’s healthy breath of purified air and allowing it to lower our cortisol, bring us out of any tension and be able to be present in our friends laughter.

This scene, we are picturing ourselves in a safe familiar backyard. It has a swing chair nested under a large tree branch. We sit, we smell the many varieties of flowers surrounding us, we hear the creak of the trees as gushes of wind flow, causing the seat to swing a long with it. We’ve come here for a break from the chaos, an empty still moment. This music facilitates us in nature, to slow down. Surrendering ourselves of control as nature allows constant unpredictability and still finds a way to exist peacefully.
