RE: Listening To Nature - #ecotrain #adsactly

in #ecotrain6 years ago

That photo f the trees with the path really speaks to me. I love the water, but the mountains and trees really seem to resonate with me. I grew up with a lot of problems as a teenager, but there was really nowhere to be alone other than my room so I spent a LOT of time there.

I think that wore off on me, because I still do that to this day. Of course I live in Oklahoma where I get eaten alive by mosquitos if I dare to go outside for a moment.

I need more nature. Your photos make me feel at home. Gorgeous. Thank you for sharing.

What a wonderful post. I almost missed it because I'm off traveling about and am sporadic at best on steemit.

Maybe because I grew up a farm boy, maybe just because, but I am happier on any day that I spend more time outside than in. The last week I spent in the North Woods in Wisconsin. Four days of that was just me and my dog. We walked every day, and talked to lots of things. Even the deer flies even though those weren't the nicest conversations.

I'm really glad to see you making this journey. Thank you for sharing it.

hi @bigtom13! Long time no see! Glad to see you are off on your adventures! :D haha I would have loved to hear the conversations you had with the deer flies xD I am sure they were getting a stern telling off! I love the idea of disappearing for days into the woods with just my hubby and my dogs for company. We bought a tent last year to do exactly that, but we still haven't used it yet! What a waste! I think with the summer holidays around the corner, we may have to look at using it for the first time :)

@byn I hadn't realised I was mirroring the behaviour of my past until I started to read the book, it really hit home that nature pretty much saved me as a teen. You defo need to head into nature more, it might help to relieve some of your anxieties x

I wish there was 'nature' around here that didn't involve getting eaten alive by mosquitos. I want to move to the mountains!!! Unfortunately my time with nature is just yard work at the moment. It's just too hot for me to be outside unless I have to be.

That is a shame. Hopefully one day you will be able to move closer to nature <3

Thank you. That's the plan someday! Our youngest has one more school year and if finances allow, we want to head to the mountains to live again!
