Daily Connect: The Most Beautiful Place on Earth

"This is the most beautiful place on earth.  There are many such places.   Every man, every woman, carries in heart and mind the image of the ideal place, the one true home, known or unknown, actual or visionary."

--- Edward Abbey, Writing of Arches National Park in Desert Solitaire , as cited in The Quotable Nature Lover.

When I read that last sentence I sense the broadness of the mountains within, the homeyness of the heart, and the way that being in nature can reflect those feelings back to us.
