Solitude: A Gift From Nature
Solitude: A Gift From Nature in 8K Ultra HD resolution.
Today people live in a world that thrives on being busy and over-scheduled. Further, they have developed the technological means to be constantly connected to others and to vast options for information and entertainment through social media. For many, smartphones demand their attention day and night with constant notifications. As a result, naturally occurring periods of solitude and silence that were once commonplace have been squeezed out of their lives. Music, reality TV shows, UA-cam, video games, tweeting and texting are displacing quiet and solitary spaces. Silence and solitude are increasingly viewed as 'dead' or 'unproductive' time..
Research studies showed that people who took part in outdoor nature programs benefited both from the outdoor settings and from the experience of being alone. They clearly demonstrated the value of spending time in nature. Scholars in fields including wilderness therapy and environmental psychology have shown that time outdoors benefits our lives in many ways. It has a therapeutic effect, relieves stress and restores attention. Alone time in nature can have a calming effect on the mind because it occurs in beautiful, natural and inspirational settings. Nature also provides challenges that spur individuals to creative problem-solving and increased self-confidence. It can offer an opportunity to clarify thoughts, hopes, dreams and desires. It provides time and space for people to step back, evaluate their lives and learn from their experiences. Spending time this way prepares them to re-engage with their community relationships and full work schedules.

    When i was a kid i used to live in a small village near the ocean, where often times there is no electricity. When i look up, the sky is filled with stars and it was so beautiful. Me and my friends always compete to who find the Big Dipper and small dipper first. Now 10 years in California, I haven’t seen the big dipper even once. The sky looks empty, with so much light pollution. Seeing this video makes me want to stargazing
