I am not as in tune with nature as I used to be. When I was younger and had more time, I used to hike in the desert or ride my mountain bike in city parks and near the river or ocean. I enjoyed spending that time by myself and feeling like I was at one with the universe.
ReplyDeleteNow I don't spend much time in nature because I am very busy and tired. However, I want to make a change and spend more time in natural places where I can feel warm breezes, hear soothing sounds and see the majesty of the world. It is my dream to one day bathe with monkeys in Jigokudani, Japan!
I think I am in tune with nature because I always go to travel in nature especially the beach or Island. Usually I go with my family and we have a lot of activity such as swimming , canoeing or picnic. Sometime i want to go alone because i want to stay with nature when i feel bored from city, work or feeling bad.
ReplyDeleteI would like to go before sunset and always sit near the beach. Sometime I am walking on the beach , smelling and hearing the ocean,Whenever I come that make me feel soothing and relaxing. In my opinion everybody need nature because you can not stay just in the city.In tune with nature will make you feel calm and relax.
Ok I'll try one more time.
ReplyDeleteI am in touch with nature but I am not in tune with.
Many years ago I realy was in tune with nature. I spend so much time with a friends practiced sports like climbing , hiking , mountain bike, sky and also scuba diving.
It was a great time because I had time to enjoy the two very important things in my life, friends and sports in nature.
Now I have a different life and I don't have time and also I heve to say that I am getting little lazy.
I hope one day my life change and start to have time again.

I think I`m not in tune with nature before. Because I always stayed in the city.
ReplyDeleteBut when I went to Cambodia, I changed my mind.
There were a lot of nature where I went to there and I was impressed.When I
backed to Japan,I was relaxed.My coworker told me to "You looks relax!"
So I thought I touched nature air where it was.
After that I really like go to the park , to see the nature and natural cosmetics.
Now I moved to manhattan and this city doesn`t have mountains but there are a lot of parks. So after spring I want to go there and more relax.
i dont spend much time in nature because i am living in the city .
ReplyDeletei think i am interested about nature just sea and beach part.
Because , i like swimming and fishing. When i spend my time with sea in feel happy.
However , when i feel uncorfortable and upset i am going to go to quite place maybe park or montain.Because ,i want to stay alone in nature .Those places are makes me happty, I think i need more spent time these kind of places.
New York is one of the most urban city in the world. Because of that I'm not in tune with nature now.
ReplyDeleteI used to went to beach frequently. I had a brown skin especially summer and I like scuba diving. One of my best experience in my life is the trip to Saipan Island. Saipan Island has a famous cave in the sea. It was beyond description when I saw that cave. After I got off a number of stairs,we can dive into the water. It was gloomy in the sea but sunlight in throught the cave. We took some picture but it's not as a photogenic.
Now that winter's here it's important to keep my summer's mind. Winter is too hard to go out. However I'm trying to attach to natute and do some sports as much as possible even if I don't have a lot of time.

When I was a kid, My parents often take me and my little brother go to the farm,The farm like a holiday village, We will go to pick fruits, then we will go fishing, or climbing the mountain,The farm have a project to plant trees, we all enjoy this time.
ReplyDeleteNow, My parents are very busy, They often going to other cities on a business trip over the weekend, I hope they can have time to feel the nature, So they can keep healthy also.
I think to be in turn with nature is to be in turn with ourselves.Because human came from nature.When I was in China.I often went swimming outsides in summer in my hometown-QINGDAO.At weekends,I usually claimed the Lao mountain with my family.It's very relaxing.
ReplyDeleteBut now in NYC.It's so cold that I have to go home quickly after class.I can only see the snow at home.Maybe when warm weather comes.I will go to the Central Park with my gf and travel around the NYC.
