Lantern Hill Trail, by David Silvia

“The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quite alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature. As longs as this exists, and it certainly always will, I know that then there will always be comfort for every sorrow, whatever the circumstances may be. And I firmly believe that nature brings solace in all troubles.”

― Anne Frank, The Diary of a Young Girl

I discovered this quote in the following post at beyondtheflow, and inspiring blog which I highly recommend. Rowena’s story is powerful.

Accepting that I don’t have the time or skills to join the global video tribute to Anne Frank, I decided I could at least share her words that comfort my soul with wisdom and grace across the years.
