nature

i find nature so inspiring
i love to look into the eyes of a horse or a cat or dog and just feel that connection between you for those minutes
no thoughts, nothing, just 'being', sharing that moment, fellow creatures with a mutual lifeforce, an essence

so, when i read stories like this, i get a warm feeling, a sense of wonder, i want to visit these places where nature is reclaiming some of what man has previously taken
the DMZ between North and South Korea is another wonderful example of this
and marine life too, like the reef that has formed on the Venice flood barrier :)
