      Nature has been humanized in much of the US. No grizzlies to worry about. Still, though not so wild with big trails etc. it is much better than no nature. I am old, and Texas is hot, but at least I can walk the dog in the mornings. The coyotes are gone and now there are bunnies aplenty.

      @@charlestaylor8624 That's too bad about the coyotes. People tend to want to wipe things out that are a nuisance or a bit of a threat. I know they're around in the desert area of Utah i live in. I usually have a few deer visit most days and a family of raccoons come for the cat food i leave out at night. I know what you mean about the trails, especially in some national parks where they're paved. It's almost better just to walk a few hundred yards off the road somewhere. Best wishes.

    July 3rd, my kids and I, in a uhaul, left the overwhelming Denver Metro area and drove to our new home in a small town in Kansas. We don't hear or see, or even feel the things we did in a huge city. It's quiet here, we go to the little forest often at night. We don't see the horrifying things anymore, the tent cities filled with people completely gone on drugs, or the crime, things no child should see on a daily basis. I feel safe. For the first time in 33 years (how long i lived there) i don't worry about my kids being accosted by a druggie, or thug...they can run around a playground where there are no needles laying around. There's no trash anywhere, and people are genuinely kind! The air doesn't stink.
    I have had a hard time getting used to this peace, this quiet. It's hard not expecting the worst when someone says hi while out on a walk. It's very hard getting the city out of me. But it IS getting out and I've never been so happy in my life.

    I grew up in rural Canada. For my brothers and I, the forest was our playground. We hunted, fished and foraged, made lean-to shelters. Not knowing anything different, I thought everyone lived like this. I learned how to paddle a canoe and skin a rabbit before I learned how to ride a bicycle. As an adult, I lived in the city doing a soul-crushing job and living in an apartment. Watching a coworker have a nervous breakdown in the office was my catalyst for change. I escaped in 2003 returning to rural Nova Scotia with my city-born wife reluctantly joining me. It didn’t take long to make her a convert after watching a white tail doe with a fawn in the backyard nibbling on our hostas. We wouldn’t have it any other way.

    Enjoyed this. I work in a bookshop on the main road in a seaside village called Kalk Bay near CapeTown. I have noise 8 hours a day from heavy trucjs, motorbikes, taxis, impatient drivers and the loud babble from people. My solitude and silence has become so deeply important to me. Thank you fir this. Love from Cape Town.

    Thank you so much for this timely video, Bjorn. My daughter ran away from home last Sunday here in Tennessee. My wife and I are frantic to find her and are doing everything possible, working with local and state authorities to bring her home. In the midst of all this grief and stress, your video brought me a small measure of peace for a little bit. Thank you very much for your thoughtful words. We as a world badly need to hear this perspective. Youre absolutely right. The world is full of noise, and it is causing people to lose their way.

    I left an aircraft job. I saw how miserable people were in a room with no windows. And people living paycheck to paycheck. Who couldn’t really enjoy life. I went back to my old job of landscaping. Im happier outside! It really does change you mentally and physically. It’s healing to the soul. I live on 20 acres by myself and I love it so much!!

    I live in a redwood forest in Northern California. It is very hot and dry in the summer. I have been supplying a trough of fresh water every day in the summer, for years. I see the same birds, honey bees, squirrels, foxes, skunks and deer drinking and bathing in the trough every day. I love to watch them. Maybe they aren't afraid of me, or maybe they just need the water, but they will come and drink even if I am reading out there.

    You and I think about things the same way. I am happiest when I am out and living alone, away from society. Even when I'm near society, I'm alone in my mind. I mostly feel that I just don't get any enjoyment from being with most people. They never seem to be doing anything I care about. I pursue my own desires most of the time, alone, and it is fine.

Perhaps that is why nature is so healing, because we are returning to our natural state outside of all the artificial busyness and noise that so often distracts from what really matters in life

    I enjoy actually touching the bark of trees, take off my shoes and feel the coolness of any body of water, and even run my hand over leaves and grass. It's amazing the different smells after a rain, even the flowers get sweeter. I find that my senses are on hyper-drive while out and helps deepen my connection with nature on a visceral level. Especially having Otis, wanting to get out as much as possible, makes it very enjoyable and always brings a smile to my face. Greetings and all the best to a wonderful weekend from Nova Scotia, Canada!
