My journey to myself

Walking into this forest. After a long time I've been again into this wild life. I've always wanted to spend my most with nature but, yeah my comforts never made me get my thing.
Not a sight of sun but his rays are stabbing from the gaps of leaves.,took a breathe as long as I want this air to get into my pointed soul. Got of my slippers and stood on this soft, hairy, wet grass. The chill ness made out a smile from my face.."wow this small things are what that give the meaning of happiness." Just made a few steps and there was a tree that took my attention with branches widespread. Rushed forward it. My blood is iced making my hands stiffened and I'm unable to put my hands to grab a branch and I just rubbed my palms together and started to jump unto it. The trunk and branches look soft and slippery but though they are allowing me to get a grip on them. One after the other I've climbed to the top. This tree is smaller than the around ones but it lifted my spirits to the heights I've never reached before and now I can see trees around with creepers joining them.
After few minutes of walking I came across a lake fenced in an improper alignment. Looked around to get over there. Thinking of someway so I can reach the water and thus went to the other side of lake. My legs sticked up in this black mire, forced them out and went into the water. The flying insects are buzzing around in this still water lake. Took handful of water and sprinkled on my face. Took some more to drank to the throat and washed of my legs.
There I've seen a wood piece somewhat rectangular but definitely irregular half floating in water with green algae at the edges. Moved on to reach it but the depth of water made me drown till my waist. Tried to climb onto it and it turned out to be a see saw game. I've almost got onto it and then dipped into the water. Ahh I'm completely drowned and my body started shivering. I just laughed like I've never played this game. Few more trials made me succeed and finally I've got onto it. Loosened my hair to let it dry. The vigorous movements of mine produced ripples all over the river. Grabbed my legs closer and got into the reality of mine....I've never thought of happiness can bubble up in me. Up until now no one taught me that getting into woods shows you the real you. Lied onto one side and lost into sleep. We always want the extraordinary things to occur suddenly and for all the time of our life. But everything that occurs doesn't last long in this world not even the life we lead.this reminded me that my happiness here is not for a lifetime.
The dawn chorus filled up my ears. Opened my lids Glanced at the sky. Birds are dancing and whirling in the vast dark blued skies. Reached into the trees and now it's time for my prey to get to me. Not a sight of fruited trees but then I have seen a fig tree with all it's fruits shredded on ground. Picked of some and they are so completely filled with worms. Though being a veggie, that would be impossible for me to leave off those fruits.
Hunger filled, my day too filled and now I see a way to my life. I Walked for a while and there I found a road with absolute silence.
Enormous darkness filled around and now I need to choose a way back to my life. I need to look in this deep dark for some light. I've rounded my eyes, Looked deep to get my vision, But what's that I can do? These eyes need the help of some light to help me. I just closed my eyes though it doesn't makes any difference and took a breath deep enough. I have decided to walk along this hard road in this dark night.
All it takes an enthusiastic journey, an amazing experience and providing some sincere peace to mind and heart to get a way and to get away from your confusions.
This journey was an unexpected invitation. And what it left for me is not some memories not some happiness not just an answer but I feel to say it as, it filled me with full of energy to get happiness to create some memories and hope to get answered.
