Walking amongst giant 800-year-old trees gave us a different kind of awe, of how great nature is. It also gave a feeling of how small we are, compared to a lot of things, and yet, we live side-by-side, enjoying the sun, rain, and nature.
Knowing that I was surrounded by these ancients made me realize I was bearing witness to something much bigger than all of us. And how great the Creator is.
We were quiet along the way, talking in whispers, feeling only awe. I felt I was trespassing, and these giant trees were watching my every move, that I can only see them because they allowed it.
