Happy in Nature

Published 2017-09-03
"When was I happiest? When I was in nature. I was happy when I got here, and was reminded that I don't sit next to something. I don't sit above it. I'm not disconnected from it. I am a part of it." - Edward Red Beard

  • There was something about this video that really spoke to my heart. That “bubbly feeling inside” that never goes away. A hunger for nature. Hopefully I’ll manage to make the same shift as this guy. Thank you for the inspiration guys!
  • This film is so calming and captured the feeling of nature. Really well done!

    So much truth in what he is saying.. it truly hits home 🙂
  • @anaraquel2932
    All so true. However we chose to live our lives, let it be from a space of connection and integrity. Connection to the Mother we are a part of. Without this much needed connection, we are disconnected from self. I thank you
  • @Nadia-co1gk
    Your videos are such a blessing to many including me. I truly believe that we all have that yearning to be closer to nature and to live a simple life, for many however it will just remain a dream. Thank you 💕
  • @nekkachbadr4288
    The more I had the more unhappy I was .excellent philosophy
  • As mother nature wants wants you to be.. give up the trends and embrace your originality..
  • 'I am (we are) a part of it' > the Divine Nature;) As per usual, I loved this! Another lovely wise soul giving us a weekly dose of clarity and nothing but the healing truth. Thank you Green Renaissance!

    It indeed takes courage to be willing to search your heart and then, additional bravery to step into your own song. It’s both telling and ironic that so often when we confront ourselves being out of alignment with our heart, we return to what we experienced as a child or what we dreamed of when we were a child. We are indoctrinated and rewarded for producing - producing something — anything - that has financial “benefits” but rarely has heart, soul (or environmental) benefits. It is like watching a dog chase its tail. It is folly to all but the dog doing this meaningless act; for even if the dog does, at some point, catch its own tail, what does really it have? Nothing, but perhaps, a worn sense of accomplishment. All achieved with repetitive mindless effort, frustration and constant spinning in circles - for really, nothing. I salute the bravery of this young man and others who are willing to live the life music of their heart’s song.

    I wish I could achieve that level of happiness in my daily life. I am working on it as much as I can , but it's too hard to work on yourself, the hardest thing I have ever done!
