The Inspiration of Nature

 I believe that nature brings us the greatest inspiration. It drives us to become something more than what we are. Nature can range from a simple tree to a large, endless canyon. Nature creates majestic sites in which we base our artwork off of today. It is not something that can be easily recreated, and therefore should be preserved.

 Every year, my family visits a location known as Heber Springs, AR. This location is a superior example of nature. It consists of mountains, and a crystal clear lake. My family has always visited this location because of its majestic sites, and preserved wilderness. We usually make it our number one priority to visit the river known as the Little Red River. It is a great spot to fish, and it is also a very natural location. The water is as clear as a crystal glass, and the trees are greener than the greenest grass in the summer.

As we fished we would be secluded to the noises of the wild. The sound of water rushing by is always accompanied by the occasional caw of a hawk flying above us. When in nature you find yourself. You are given time to witness that you are a part of something bigger. You are a part of a process that involves every living thing on this planet. This process is known as life.

After fishing, we would embark on a major hiking expedition up a local mountain. The trip would begin early in the morning and end just before the night falls. This mountain is very steep and requires a lot of energy to conquer. While on the journey we encounter many wild animals. These include deer, squirrels, birds, and even chipmunks. These animals remind me of the lives we are damaging with our excessive pollution. As we climb higher up the mountain, we begin to become more secluded from civilization. Once at the top you have this amazing view of the world. The buildings are like small building blocks and you can see across the whole location.

These moments should be available to everyone, and they should be preserved. I believe that we can do this by reducing pollution. I want to preserve my inspiration. Nature is renewable, but it takes a long time to return. Every tree we cut, every river we pollute, is another inspiration that takes time to return. I believe that we should put all efforts into saving my inspiration.
