Taking Care of The Earth
This is just another reason I love about living here in the middle of a national forest. Basically, I’m forest bathing 24/7 as long as I’m not gone off the hill. These days having access to the nature is so important and valuable so that we get to understand we, human beings, are simply a part of it. When I am deep in the forest looking up at those trees that must be a few hundred years old, I get to feel that I am only a tiny particle flowing through on this planet called, Earth. In a book by Thich Nhat Hanh, Love Letter to The Earth, he says, “When you realize the Earth is so much more than simply the environment, you will be moved to protect her as you would yourself.” That’s why I spend a lot of time in the woods asking myself, “What can I do to take care of this Earth?”
