"While hiking in Olympic Forest Park, I inadvertently caught sight of a young boy briskly advancing through the adjacent woods. The sunlight above him pierced through the treetops, casting its glow upon him, and in that moment, he became the star of the forest. His deep blue shirt and orange shorts echoed the colors of his shoes, evoking a sense of innocence and liveliness that lingered in the mountains."
