I went on a walk about a week ago because I wanted not only to get some exercise, but to also be around nature. I left the house and began to walk up the mountain. As I was walking, I had gotten calmer and more tranquil with each step I took.
I will add that the sun was setting, so it felt really nice. I noticed all of the various types of trees and all of the scenery. There was one particular tree which seemed very old and I felt compelled to go up to it, so I did.
The tree just was. I realized that it didn't worry, it didn't complain, it didn't talk, think or move. Then I thought, "Why can't everyone be like this? Trees don't worry, complain or think, they just go with the flow."
People should be like that, but in today's world, that is "difficult." Today we mis-use and abuse technology, we are constantly on our phones, laptops, watching TV, complaining, yelling, arguing, being lazy and not trying.
