As a city-dweller I'm always awed when I'm dropped in the middle of the countryside.
I'm amazed by the forest, the fields, the quiet villages that seem completely deserted even though they are not. Amazed by nature. How immense it is, how silent, how open and wide the sky, how empty and yet teeming with trees and plants of every size and description, bursting with life even when nobody is looking or noticing or benefiting.
How peaceful, how wild, how unstoppable and uncontrollable, how independent of man.
