nature-freak

group 75 went on an excursion this afternoon to a beautiful waterfall in la fortuna. i was never one to be all that wow-ed by postcards or computer backgrounds featuring waterfalls. i always preferred the sunset picture or the mountains. but seeing one up close quickly changed that.
i sat on one of the rocks beside the waterfall (far enough to be safe but close enough to get nearly pushed off by the rushing water multiple times) and i was beyond wow-ed.
i felt like i could stay there for hours staring at the enormous power the waterfall had on every rock and leaf surrounding it. it was the kind of fully sensory experience that makes you forget about the existence of absolutely everything else (people, places, the past, the future...) and you have be snapped out of it. i feel like i've been having that sort of experience almost on a weekly basis.
