I decided to look it up and was surprised that the popular quote was actually part of a really well-said paragraph. Here it is in its entirety:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"Walk away quietly in any direction and taste the freedom of the mountaineer. Camp out among the grasses and gentians of glacial meadows, in craggy garden nooks full of nature's darlings. Climb the mountains and get their good tidings, Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves. As age comes on, one source of enjoyment after another is closed, but nature's sources never fail.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eThat very last line is actually my favorite - John is saying that as we get older and we're no longer able to do the things we once did, the beauty of nature will never fail in inspiring us. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThat felt like such a great reminder, and I'm excited for you all to get it. I hope it inspires you as much as it has me. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"shg-c\"\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eBig Hugs!\u003cbr\u003eJason\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"ZOX","offers":[{"title":"Small","offer_id":48249642844458,"sku":"1-3-23-WB-ORD-07-S","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Medium","offer_id":48249642975530,"sku":"1-3-23-WB-ORD-07-M","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large","offer_id":48249643073834,"sku":"1-3-23-WB-ORD-07-L","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0873\/6892\/5482\/files\/HappyMountains1KOutside_1_cf1a0318-3087-47eb-9ce4-590cc942ca8b.webp?v=1714018877"},{"product_id":"winter-wonderland","title":"Winter Wonderland","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"shogun-root\" data-shogun-id=\"5e449d4a726f0b0067639cd8\" data-shogun-site-id=\"7926eac2-5d57-432e-a16a-ab91f79a5215\" data-shogun-page-id=\"5e449d4a726f0b0067639cd8\" data-shogun-page-version-id=\"5e449d4a726f0b0067639cd7\" data-shogun-platform-type=\"shopify\" data-shogun-variant-id=\"5e449d4a726f0b0067639cdb\" data-region=\"main\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"s-4fa3e472-0cd9-4ad1-a953-bd59349ee3ce\" class=\"shg-c\"\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\nI was recently talking to a neighbor who just moved in next to us and when I asked him what made them decide to move, he told me that they looked at their lives by how many good summers they had left - he estimated around 10. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThat hit me right in the heart as I reflected on how many Christmases we had left with our kids before they didn't live at home anymore - for Sven, it's only 11 more. And I'll tell you what - the second you start thinking about it in terms of moments left like that, the more valuable they become. I think that's because like time, we don't really realize how valuable it is until there's not much left. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThat was my hope for this incredibly nostalgic reminder - that you'd take a moment to appreciate this time you have together with people you care about this holiday season while you still can.
