Nature's Peace

Climb the mountains and get their good tidings.

Nature's peace will flow into you 

as sunshine flows into trees. 

The winds will blow their own freshness into you, 

and the storms their energy, while 

cares will drop off like 

autumn leaves.

-- John Muir, Our National Parks, 1901, page 56

(and happy belated birthday, Mr. Muir, April 21)
