Wow — it’s so important to know what brings you peace, knowledge of yourself, of something so simple yet so integral to feeling at one with the world.
To me it’s just being in the woods, beside a running stream that culminates at a cascading waterfall…the sounds, the spray, the birds, music to my soul.
My plan was to drive today…and get away from people! I work in a grocery store, surrounded by people all day at varying intensities of anxiety. Nature just plugs into my psyche, gives me energy, happiness, and faith. The world seems to be falling apart in front of our eyes but the beauty, sounds, smells of the natural world that have been here for thousands of years and still retain their allure give me hope.
Today, that’s all I need. Tomorrow we do what we can to keep it this way.
