I WATCHED MY COWORKER CRY IN HIS CAR FOR 20 MINUTES, THEN WALKED BACK IN SMILING LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED. PEOPLE REALLY BE FIGHTING SILENT BATTLES EVERY DAY. PLEASE BE NICE TO PEOPLE
You’re standing on a planet with molten lava at its core. Trees are turning sunlight into air you can breathe. Your heart is beating without you asking it to. There’s a moon in the sky and bugs that glow. This whole thing is absurdly beautiful. Don’t forget to notice it.
I strongly suspect some of us were not designed for modern life…
We were meant to live in crooked little cottages, speak to birds, dry herbs from ceiling beams, and dramatically stare out of rainy windows whilst soup bubbled nearby!
Instead…there are emails to be sent.
People who keep rocks for no reason, who touch leaves when they walk by, who stop to watch insects like it actually matters, who feel calmer the moment they step into nature… you’re my type of people.
