When Fear visits...nature speaks, from Hermann Hesse
When Fear visits, listen the tall thoughts of tress...
"So the tree rustles
in the evening, when we stand uneasy before our own childish thoughts: Trees
have long thoughts, long-breathing and restful, just as they have longer lives
than ours. They are wiser than we are, as long as we do not listen to them. But
when we have learned how to listen to trees, then the brevity and the quickness
and the childlike hastiness of our thoughts achieve an incomparable joy.
Whoever has learned how to listen to trees no longer wants to be a tree. He
wants to be nothing except what he is. That is home. That is happiness.”
Hermann Hesse
