As It Should Be

"The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely, or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature, and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature."
-Anne Frank

I don't think I've ever been able to express why I crave the Noland Trail when I'm down as well as Anne Frank did with these words.

I get the urge to walk the Noland because I want to get away from "the world." When I get there, I fall in love with every blade of grass and every grain of sand. THIS is the real world. School, work, and all the rest, those are just part of existence. But, this? This is living.
