Hopeful
Many of the worlds beautiful places have been tainted by the hands of man. There are, however, innumerable areas of remaining wilderness where wondrous scenes like this are hidden and exude beauty without having ever been seen. This is what inspires me, knowing there’s so much of this to explore and experience with fresh eyes. After pushing through the thick scrub, hearing the roar of the water getting louder and louder, there’s nothing that will ever compare to that first glimpse.
