The first time I went camping my friends had to beg me to go. I was a New York girl who had never spent a night outside nor seen more than the few trees around my neighborhood, but going on that trip filled with me a peace I've never felt before. Since then I've made sure to keep do whatever I can to keep it close. It is a feeling of connection and openness as if my soul had found its kin. I realized that nature and humans come from the same design and have so many variations that are just as beautiful as all the different trees that bring us so much happiness. A favorite artist of mine, Oriol Angrill Jorda, captures this perfectly. His works reminds me that nature heals the soul because it is a part of our bodies and souls that we must not ever lose sight of.
