There’s so much going on in the news world right now—sometimes you just need to go for a walk in the rainforest.

Instead of browsing headlines and scanning articles, it was much more relaxing to search for wildlife and appreciate the scenery.

It’s amazing how alive the rainforest is, even in the middle of the day. Birds sing and call, insects hum with activity, and there’s that constant sound of water. Even an environment as busy as the rainforest is refreshing, as if your body is telling you “you’re supposed to be here.”

Sometimes to take a break from all the noise in the world, we only have to immerse ourselves in the noise, or silence, of nature.
