06There is something so special about nature that we can’t explain with words. Nature is all around us, but sometimes we forget it’s there.
When we feel down and without energy, we tend to go somewhere far from the city, somewhere where there are only trees, or fields, rivers, or seas. Somewhere where you can’t hear the noise from cars, somewhere where you can only hear the wind, the song of the birds, or the sound of the waves. We tend to go into the wild. And once we are there, we feel peaceful and we feel connected to the Earth and to ourselves.
People tend to escape from their stressful lives and they remember to connect with nature when they don’t know what else to do. But we shouldn’t do that. We need to always be connected with nature and with the wild, and once we manage to do that, we will have happier lives.
We gathered some of the most inspirational and most beautiful quotes about nature, that will inspire you to go outside more and enjoy the beautiful nature that surrounds you.
