What is nature for me?

I served in the army for several years – my specialty was survival in the nature.

I had to learn to live in nature – how to find a water,  how to survive without eating for a few days,  how to read the stars and to know where to go, how to make a fire from what that exist in the nature.

I spent years in the nature, and in a sense it has already become a kind of home for me. When I come to the nature – I can be really me. Without all kinds of commitments to the society.
When you are happy in nature, the joy is much more powerful. And when you’re sad in nature – it scratches your heart for life.

There is a song in Hebrew that talks about a Bedouin nomad, who always leaves his tent and his wife for the nature. Until, one day he returns to the tent and he sees that it is written on the tent sheet – that the woman time arrive – and she left too.

I knew people who loved nature too much – and it made them so passionate about the sense of freedom – and they sacrificed their marriage for it.
I saw people lost, frustrated and crying in the nature.

I went out for a few nights alone in the desert, I walked for a few days in snow – covered mountains without seeing anyone except traces of bears, I climbed to 6000 meters topic, I was in the lowest point in the world, I slept only with my clothes on the ground, sweating in the heat of the desert and trying to find a water, walking in the rain – unable to dry my clothes, eating plants – because I did not have food, … and almost to kill my friend, because of my navigation mistake at the night in the desert.

Because of all the things I’ve experienced in the nature, it is difficult for me looking on the nature as just a beautiful landscape, because I know that  it can cause a lot of agony and mental struggles, but on the other hand I can not move too long without stopping and move away from the civilization and go out into the open spaces.

For me, nature is a psychologist – that I can come and shout and no one will hear.
For me, nature is the most perfect woman in the world – because you always discover new sides.
For me, nature, it’s me – because I can not contain it.

Here in Munich I do not find nature that satisfying me so much – because everything is very artificial.

That’s why I travel to the nature.
