The connection people feel in nature has been pondered since humans first began to walk on the earth. From the refreshing sensation of breathing fresh air to the calming feeling that being among the trees brings us. From the feeling of damp soil and warm grass on the bare feet to the sensation of being revitalized when the sun comes up on our skin. When is the last time you pondered this and the reason that it is so? Is this just because we are animals at our basic or does it go deeper? Many have forgotten what our origin is and fewer yet think much beyond the story. The origin that I was taught goes something like this: one day, shortly after the formation of midgard, Odin Vili and Ve walked along the waters and saw two pieces of wood laying on the beach. One made of Ash and one made of elm. Odin picked each up, breathing the breath of life into each. Vili felt that life was great, but not without the ability to enjoy and to feel It, so be too breathed on them, giving them emotion and the ability to deduct and reason. Ve, seeing that they still missed the ability to truly feel have them the gifts of sight and hearing. Mankind then opened its eyes for the first time and saw that the world was a beautiful place meant to be enjoyed. We are all connected. The waters to the grains of sand. The glistening on snow and the light winds that shake the tree branches. We feel comfort because it is very much tied to our origins and we are as much a part of it as it is of us. When you feel disconnected because of the demands of the world to push nature to the side, take the time to revisit and reconnect with it. Ask the tree next time if you may lean against it and breath deeply if it's answer is yes. Simply take in it's comfort and feel what it is to take energy from the earth. Beyond anything, feel that connection and know that you are a part of something truly extraordinary and share that gift as much as you are able. Many blessings you wonderful and amazing people
