what do you call the slight longing feeling where you see something far in the horizon, a peak, a valley or an island, an intense desire to get to it and explore every nook of it? the feeling in my stomach says that everything will be good in life once i do that, but then i do and i have fun but it just doesn't satisfy it entirely. i remember being a kid and the world feeling big, mysterious and ungraspable. this feeling feels like that but a pale shadow of it. i want to feel like that again, entirely.
a simple forest felt great as a kid, awesome, hours of exploration. but now it is a collection of trees, albeit nice and pleasant to walk in, but it doesn't fill me with wonder overly much. i can't describe it properly. is it just wanderlust or something else or?
I don't know, when I hear the phrase wanderlust, I just think of mentally stunted trust fund recipients that are trying to sound more intelligent than they actually are.
