I love nature. It’s no secret, its the reason I donate to Greenpeace and the WWF every month and the reason I’m a vegetarian. I just like to look. Stare at it and soak up every little bit of it.
On the one hand I would love to live in the country as your surrounded by those lovely sights and its so green. On the other hand I would love to live in the city to feel the buzz of people living their lives. Because people are nature too in their own right, we may not be green but we are certainly part of nature. But you wouldn’t see any hills, there wouldn’t be many trees and a lot of the time the nearest you’ll get to nature is a park nearby.
This is why I don’t like living in a housing estate, the houses dominate the landscape, I am literally surrounded by houses. It makes it hard to experience nature, when all the houses are blocking the stars and moon at night and blocking out the evening sun. You have to ask why people feel the need to live compacted together, there are some clear reasons but it removes some excellent sights. I could quite happily sit and stare at the stars for hours just thinking about things, anything at all, trying to wrap my head around how big a world, galaxy, universe it is. Being around nature help’s to block out all the negative things happening in the world and show you the true things in life which should always be there since it’s natures right to be around us.
When I have a house I’m going to grow a large tree and watch it’s branches reach for the sky to grasp at the sunlight, and remember what a beautiful world we live in.
