I do believe this. While no one loves “vegging out” more than I do, getting up and doing something constructive is necessary for anyone’s wellbeing, especially if it means going outdoors and doing something really physical.
The image here is beautiful and the quote is brilliant.

What beautiful colors.
Interesting quote. I know some people who could
benefit from learning to be still as a tree.
You’re very good at finding these wonderful photo ops and then matching them with quotes. When are you going to pull them all together into a book?
I have got to go there. period.
Could be a watercolour. Lovely.
the photo makes my mind wander,
and my feet want to follow…

Not that I completely disagree with that quote, but I have a rather opposing one it made me think of:
“Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass on a summer day listening to the murmur of water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is hardly a waste of time. ” -John Lubbock
