"I was in the forest for scienti¢c research, hiking. I was happy to be in the forest. I had the feeling that I was part of nature, and that I was experiencing life and nature in its purest form. I felt truly content. I felt I could stand there forever. I relaxed. I felt like lying down and going to sleep. I closed my eyes and listened to the forest. I was much more in tune with the world and life. I knew that there was much more to life than the everyday hustle and bustle of surviving."[2]
