To stroll amongst giants –
straight-backed arrows
whose green bows aim skyward,
a directional pull so uplifting
that earthly matters diminish –
this is contentment.

This is a wonderful poem, VJ, and a great definition of contentment. Despite the knowledge of what contentment is, it (often) remains elusive.

One of my favorite forest walks was Muir Woods in California. Trees do have an energy that’s very uplifting!
