Nature is so powerful for revitalizing the self (mentally, spiritually, emotionally, physically, and socially) and able to connect us to heaven on earth. All ages should explore the outdoors in all of its seasons.

[@drwhitneykosters]

You are absolutely right. I hope you find time in your busy life to explore the outdoors and find that connection that Frost is referring to.
