This is a personal entry from my point of view as to why I care about Nature and want to make a change, whether it be a big change or small change. So here I write:

As a human being, we always get a little lost, don’t we? Sometimes we know who we are and other times we forget who we are because of bad times that occur and thus when that happens, we place expectations on ourselves and carry unwanted burdens on our shoulders that we think we should be but in fact we are not what our expectations reach, rather they are just stories of our past. Stories that do not make us who we are but stories that shape our emotions and our judgements for the present and the future. Therefore, linked to this paragraph, I was a lost person as I didn’t know where I belonged. I knew I wasn’t materialistic and definitely did not follow societal expectations as that was not me at all. Rather, I found happiness when I went for hikes within the mountains or going on new adventures. That is when I knew I belonged with nature as that made me feel content and a part of me felt alive again. Not that I didn’t feel anything before hand, but I felt something more when I was with nature and I knew it was my call to at least try to make a change.

However, this year I had lost myself a little bit as I became lost and didn’t know what I was doing with myself. I made mistakes and yes stupid mistakes. I even lost some people that I loved (friends, true friends) and still do miss them as I care too much for my own good. I become detached from everything even nature and I still am quite detached. Yet, I am getting back on my feet even though it will take quite a while. Considerately, I know nature will accept me again and when the time is right, nature will influence me to be a better person with a better soul. I know it sounds insane, but nature is just not a social concept or social definition. Nature is real and alive, nature is always around us and anytime we need her, she will be alive and well to help as she is the one who provides cures for terminal diseases and the one who provides us with oxygen.

I have been so selfish but by connecting with nature, I have learnt to control my anger and I have learnt to be happy with myself. No one can ever take that privilege away and I will ensure that will never occur again as to me becoming angry and becoming mentally weak as long as I always have mother nature on my side and as long as I remain loving and altruistic.
