"I was thinking we're all gonna die," says 12-year-old Brayden Taylor. Plans for a sunny day fishing off the coast of Amelia Island, Florida, took a wild turn for Brayden, his grandpa Jamie Deonas, and Jamie's friend Frank when a sudden storm hit. In the blink of an eye, they were fighting to stay afloat as water flooded their vessel. Putting on their PFDs minutes before the boat capsized saved their lives. They spent two hours in the water while three storms pummeled them before being rescued. For Jamie, a seasoned mariner, it was a wake-up call. Although he always knew where the life jackets were, he now swears he won't go on the water without physically wearing one. With National Safe Boating Week happening now, this harrowing experience serves as a powerful reminder that accidents can happen quickly. Always wear your life jacket; you might not have time to put it on when you need it most. #livebeyondland

Red squirrels are one of my favourite native British wildlife species. This beautiful species is endangered in England and Wales due to interspecific competition with grey squirrels, diseases such as Squirrelpox, and habitat loss. Red squirrels typically live in coniferous and deciduous woodlands and need sufficient tree canopy structure and woodland connectivity to efficiently forage and reduce the risk of predation. Deforestation and changing land uses (housing, roads, industrial) are causing some woodland areas to become isolated or destroyed, no longer able to support and sustain red squirrels and many other wildlife populations. It is incredibly important that proper planning and risk assessments are carried out for forestry operations so that impacts are minimised for our native species.
Long week? Slow your racing thoughts and escape to nature. Notice the dappled sunlight of a woodland in summertime...the russet gleam of a Red Squirrel's coat as it leaps gracefully... birdsong fills the air...hear the rustle and swish of leaves on the breeze. This is your sign to step outside today.🍃 #RSPBNatureBreak

Boat & Shallow Water- Dealing with shallow people. You cannot row a boat in a Shallow water. You have to enter into deeper waters and then only can a Boat take you to your destination. People living in a Shallow life will never understand things that require deeper dwelling or deep pondering on them. In fact they will question you and your thought process. They have bigger resistance as compared to what you may have in deeper waters rowing your boat. And you will encounter these people at your home, relatives, friends , offices , everywhere. The trick here is to quickly gauge their depth and ensure you avoid engaging with them at Deeper levels. Don't try to change or teach them. As those who wish to learn will show their eagerness through their action. You try too much will Trigger you. Protect Your inner peace as it is very important. https://lnkd.in/dkd5WXy2 #mksdilse #lifecoach #innerpeace #boatandwater #lifelessons #protectingmypeace #selflove #triggers #protectingenergy #spiritualalignment
