Een slokje hemelwater

‘Kijk, hij drinkt!’ riep mijn man.

Ik met mijn neus, nou ja, camera, tegen het glas. Daar zat hij, de eekhoorn. Regendruppels glansden op zijn vacht. Heel aandachtig nam hij kleine slokjes hemelwater.

Eekhoorn die regendruppels drinkt van het glas — squirrel drinking rainwater

Hoe mooi!

In a world that rushes and rumbles, it feels good to slow down for a while — to notice something small and beautiful, something that softens the noise. A squirrel taking a sip of heaven’s water, and for a moment, everything feels gentle again. 

Heb jij ooit wel eens een eekhoorntje zien drinken?

    1. Thank you so much — your comment really encouraged me. I sometimes feel that what I share is too simple and small in a world full of chaos, but your words reminded me that even quiet moments can bring light. 🌸

    1. Yes, it rained quite a lot a few days ago — you can still smell it in the forest. I think all the animals are happy about it. 🌧️🐿️🌿
