Enjoy the fruits of the Earth

Currently, it is harvest time, and that is a good reason to enjoy the pleasure the harvest can mean for us. On a beautiful day, sit in the sun. Connect to the earth below you and the sky above you. Take some fruits that grow where you live and that are currently ripe – if it is possible and safe to do so, gather them yourself. An example would be to pick some apples from the tree in your garden, if you have one.
Look at the fruits, admiring their colour, their texture. Eat them slowly, enjoying their flavour, their sweetness. Of course, this works best if you choose fruits that you like. Take you time and enjoy life's pleasure.
