spiritual by nature

the natural world is wild, untamed, beautiful, inspiring, healing—

indifferent to our love,

indifferent to our connection to it,

indifferent to our beliefs, morals, ideas.

neutral to our notions of right or wrong, good or bad.

it just is.

it just exists, with or without us.

maybe that’s why it’s so beautiful - we cannot change it, it’s not ours to hold or to keep, it owes us nothing, it has no bounds, it knows no forgiveness.

maybe that is why I find being in its presence so healing — it acts as the ultimate teacher, a mirror to our thoughts, our beliefs, our weaknesses; it challenges our mental and physical capacity, and pulls us closer to ourselves
