Being In Nature

And so again, God, it was like orchestrated. I would have to spend my life spending long hours sitting in tree branches, long hours sitting by rivers, long hours walking through fields alone, so I could stay connected to the presence. Because if I believed what people said around me, I would not want to live. I just did not want to be here. It was too painful. I had always dreamed of leaving the concrete city and going to nature. And the voice said to me, 'You keep praying for people and you keep loving people, and one day you are going to be lifted out of the concrete and you are going to fly into a place that looks like heaven, except you will get to keep your body.' And that is exactly what happened. Three years later, I met my husband, and we moved up here to where we live among the oak trees and lived happily ever after.
