Stars that glimmer in a velvet sky, sprinkles of colour dotting spring trees, rivers galloping down mountainsides, endless open stretches that beg to be run across with wild abandon, heavy air hanging amidst thick trees, which shelter unseen creatures mere feet away, infinite, firm, immovable ranges topped with glittering snow, sun-streaked and sparkling oceans, smoothly beckoning or foaming with reckless passion.
When did we start shuttering our wide eyes, closing out all but thin strips of our world’s breathtaking beauty? How can anyone bear to be so readily sightless of this magnificence? Maybe if we threw open the blinds and bathed in the artistry of our Earth, we wouldn’t be so irresponsible with it, wouldn’t allow ourselves to be complicit in its devastation.
