Being in nature gave me an unbelievable confidence in myself. I found a beauty, strength, and an inner peace that I never knew was present.

Life is a struggle with uncertain outcomes. Nonetheless, the natural world remains the substrate on which we must build our existence.

Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts. There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature.
