View this post on Instagram ✨ I discovered a couple years ago that I had a deep soul connection with nature. I think nature connects with us all in different ways if we allow it to. For me, it calms my soul, rejuvinates my body, and refreshes my mind. When I’m out in nature I try to let it’s essence truly entrap me and become aware of its being. The wind brushing my face, the sun against my skin, the leaves and twigs rustling under my feet. Being able to experience nature in it’s purest form is truly a beautiful thing. I am always thankful for the peace and revelations nature brings me and will for all of my days as long as I am able explore all of its beauty ✨ A post shared by Chloe Clifton (@cliftonchloe) on Feb 4, 2019 at 7:27pm PST Marion Sansom Park is located at 2501 Roberts Cut Off Road Fort Worth, TX 76114.
