If you've ever walked a mile into a virgin forest - you know, like a deep forest where trees have been uncut - the energy is totally different from the shopping mall.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Having trees and a track to run on have become more important to me than living near cool restaurants.
L.A. malls are so different than a 'mall' mall like we probably all grew up with that had a food court and the sword shop, the yo-yo kiosk.
I have gone to the forest.
The woods were a boon; all too often, the forest offered danger and mystery. Yet it could be liberating. If you entered that wild place on its own terms, you might be accorded wisdom.
The denser places get, the lower the amount of energy people use to get around it.
Clearly, any well-kept garden will be a source of pleasure in the summer months; in the bleak urban midwinter, however, there are few activities more likely to energise the spirit than a botanical walk.
I choose the places I go to carefully and wisely. I'll rarely go to a shopping mall anymore.
If we ever have free time, my partner and I are fond of going on walks through the local state forests and parks.
The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness.
You walk into a retail store, whatever it is, and if there's a sense of entertainment and excitement and electricity, you wanna be there.
