“We depend on nature not only for our physical survival. We also need nature to show us the way home, the way out of the prison of our minds. We got lost in doing, thinking, remembering, anticipating ; lost in a maze of complexity and a world of problems. We have forgotten what rocks, plants and animals still know. We have forgotten how to be – to be still, to be ourselves, to be where life is : here and now.”
—Eckhart Tolle (via rosslikethestore)
“I hope you never have to think about anything as much as I think about you.”
—Jonathan Safran Foer (via thebrookesmith)
