My go-to reflection spot has to be the benches across the bridge overlooking Beebe Lake, behind Fuertes Observatory. Day or night, the stillness of the water amid the lively hum of the birds, trees, and wildlife around you is the perfect blend of peace and comfort. It's still enough to ground you — to remind you to exist in the present — while surrounding you with enough energy and movement by the natural environment around you to remind you that, no matter what, you're never alone in this world. Through the thick and thin of college living, it's nice to have a place where you can recharge and reconnect with yourself and the natural world around you.
