Olga L. (SEI) about Nature

The state of happiness for me is music and, of course, nature.

I often experience a state of happiness. Right now, the blooming trees bring happiness, the scent of blooming lilacs is such a delight! The leaves on the trees move and play with light and shadow! That’s happiness. It’s an overwhelming sense of the beauty of the world! Indescribable! And harmony in everything! Nature is everything! All of nature is beautiful.

Even in the north, it’s beautiful. You’d think, what’s there to see? But it’s stunningly beautiful: hills, white reindeer moss between huge moss-covered boulders, and bright red berries on it… An indescribable beauty. On the dark water, there’s pale ice, white on top, darker and darker underneath, with gentle sloping shores rising above the water... Happiness is the beauty of the world around us.
