My Home.
Abandoning the place I love most, the forest. I feel like I belong here, and it calls me back when I'm far. My heart yearns to be full again of green and trees. I sometimes imagine what it would be like to live life as a bear, or coyote, living deep in the forest, far from humans, never seen one or fathom the thought. Sometimes I feel closer to animals than people. People are cruel and selfish. They never understand,but I do. I love our planet, I want to keep it safe, balanced, free, and happy. I think I belong in the wild. Other times, I dream of being a bear, standing right at the cliff of El Capitan,staring off into the distance.
