Perhaps its because many of us find the simple things in life to mean more : the aroma of coffee brewing, the clean smell of a baby just powdered, the taste of rain on our tongue, an interesting cloud formation, the ticking of a clock, the sound of a train, the creaking in a wooden floor, beauty physical or soulful, love, patriotism, generosity, ......... explains why we miss the herd, we miss the buffalo, we miss the calm they seem to invoke.
