In most cities I have lived in, when you feel like taking a walk, it doesn't seem to make a difference which direction you walk in: you will be traveling along the same buildings, built into the same mold. Come by a park, the park will still be an accessory of this mold, like makeup on a woman without charisma.
I can only recall a few instances when you could take a stroll into a modest expanse of nature, and anticipate to find bugs and critters around your path. Every walk, even when retracing the same route over and over, is different and interesting.
Talk about Newbury, or 5th ave even. When I glance into the stores I am happy to myself that I am not in the store being looked at by the passer by.

- sielskr 18y agoWe are getting off the interesting point, namely, that people do better on certain tests of concentration after spending time with green tree mold, pine trees, etc, than they do after spending time with concrete, cars, etc.
- whacked_new 18y agoThis might sound lame as ever, but I honestly feel a spiritual connection with the trees and the rocks. Not the ones in boxed-off parks though. Also, I never get tired of waterfalls. Waterfalls are instantly peace-inducing. Buildings in most cities have no aura, for me at least.
