One can just wonder at man’s achievements or simply marvel at nature’s glory. One might begin to feel insignificant or just revel in the glory of mankind. One could sit quietly and simply look beyond the horizon and think about the past or consider the future. After all, the peace, quiet and history reflected in every stone and monument is not just a story about man and his struggle to build, develop and leave a mark on the world but also the story of nature. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"><span style="font-size:100%;">I love the thoughts that course through every individuals’ mind and make one realize that time or the world does not stand still for anything or anyone. Places are significant or insignificant, entirely on the basis of what one decides to perceive. Favorites change, as people &amp; places do.<o:p></o:p></span></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7116922419586814234-4352552871259799613?l=born2travel.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>~skepticbystander~http://www.blogger.com/profile/04928383575837432665noreply@blogger.com0
