"There are voices which we hear in solitude, but they grow faint and inaudible as we enter into the world" said Ralph Emerson. We all know how healing, inspiring and peaceful it can be to spend some time in Nature. And we all know how tough it can be to bring that back with us into the real world. The beauty of the trees, sound of the birds singing with joy, the smell of the nature going through my nose into my lungs is the beauty that exists in our daily lives.

When I first went to Waller Creek I was reliving my past, remembering the times when my family and I used to live besides a creek which separated the house of my grandparents and ours. My bedroom which was in the back of our house had this opening in which you could see the beauty of nature. When I woke up every morning I could see the tall, colorful trees swaying in the autumn wind.  From the time I woke up, I see the weather, and instantly I knew what nature had to offer for that day

The water running through the rocks of the Creek felt very relaxing. The only problem about being in Waller Creek is seeing trash all over my surroundings. Joseph Jones once said, “what an efficient trash-receiver the Creek has become in our day…...(pg 167). Polluting the wonderful aspects that nature has to offer is like destroying others people property. How will you feel if someone throws trash into your room?  Preserving nature is very important not only to our environment but to the living creatures living with joy. Waller Creek is admired by its flowing crisp, clear waters and its plentiful waters have been a great impact in the lives of many individuals who show a great passion for nature. As I first came upon Waller Creek I could feel the brisk of wind, and the forces of nature communicating with each other as the day was passing by. I remember hearing many different kinds of sounds coming out from the enchanted trees.  The piles of leaves were scattered around the rocks and as Mother Nature was acting to its fullest they were now all scattered into the water. “Spending a short amount of time in Waller Creek made me realize that time is short, and every day we get closer and closer to our end of time; just like the trees loosing their leaves.” (PINKMONKEY).  The wind, the smell of nature, the birds singing with joy makes me realized that I am alive.
