Corner View - Sacred

Sacred is often associated to places where a religious activity is held (whatever the religion is)

But to me it is more a sort of atmosphere, of feeling, a combination of wonder and peace, of thrill and calm, of questions that are answers..... and that I find in nature!

Corner view is a weekly appointment where wonderful people from around the world meet to share a theme. More at Fuoriborgo.

Totally agree with you ;)

funny, you're the second person mentioning today of nature being this. the first one was a composer who'd retreated to the woods to write a new album.
and i've had my moments, in nature.

thank you, for reminding me of this.

I agree, too. I find more peace when I am "in nature" than anywhere else.

Sono d'accordo con te, il sacro e' ben diverso dal significato che ne da' la religione.

Bellissime foto come sempre Gis!

I'm absolutely with you! Nature's full of wonders and there's a strange force that influences my inner mood...creates more humility than any church could ever do.
