English Short Stories for Beginners and Intermediate Learners

within.
He could see the life flowing through every little bush, insect, and
bird he came across. A peaceful harmony could be felt in the air. Sure,
there were bears and mountain lions far up somewhere in the mountains,
but they too were part of the ecosystem that connected all life in the forest.
The frogs on the lakeshore had just as much life as the beavers building
dams. They may be different creatures, but they were both small
fragments from the same world. They were made from the same chemical
elements found scattered throughout the universe.
As the sun was setting, it became less and less safe to remain in the
forest. It would be better to avoid nighttime predators, so John hiked back
to his car. Exhausted from the journey, he sat in his car wondering about
the next time he would come back. There would definitely be a next time,
and it would definitely have to be with Jenny.
