Forest
"A good word is like tree whose root is firmly fixed in the sky"- the Koran
"If all seeds that were to fall would grow, then no-one could follow the path under the trees" - the Akan
What did the tree learn from the earth to be able to talk to the sky? - Pablo Neruda
Sometimes you just need to head into the Forest. A little hard from the building-lined NY.
Though this is not the same as your whole self going there, I have placed a number of images below (some as links for you to visit when you need to). I chose these images specifically as they are taken by trekers, adventurers who post and share their photos on TrekEarth.

Perhaps until I go there in person myself,
I am able to connect to their [the travellers] sensations and connections with the forest,
and bring myself there…

(Not quite forest - but too good to resist sharing!)
