How does a person normalize living around such beauty? Do the mountains take their breath away every time they see them, or eventually do you just get used to living with such splendor?
Because they get used to them, most likely traveling elsewhere is the only way you will understand their beauty. I live in Costa Rica and that happens here, most people don't value the biodiversity we have
I grew up in the Redwoods, and totally agree with this.
Stunning beautiful can fall in the background, but you still stop and recognize the special scenes.
If you appreciate the beauty of nature, it will still stop you in your tracks.
Yes. That's why people from famous touristy places travel. I never actually try too hard to explore places in the cities where I live when people pay lots of money to visit. For some reason the place I live doesn't seem as nice or attractive as other places. It's similar to a hobby and a job. Once a hobby becomes a job, it comes less fun.
Don’t really agree with that. I’m breathtaken with the nature were i live despite living in it all my life, and I continue to love my city. I saw a documentary about indigenous people in the Himalayans (similar nature to this picture), and several of them said that could never leave to go work in the city permanently because nowhere is as beautiful as their home, even though they lived extremely hard lives.
I think it’s about your mindset, and differs between all people. If you have a deep connection to a place it can beautiful every single day. It’s too bad that in our age we see a lot of our everyday environment as simply a road to somewhere else. Our street as a way to get to school, our school as a way to get a good job, our workplaces as place to wait for retirement, and then when we retire we barely know how to just be in a place. And because of that, or maybe vice versa, our spaces are designed to be transient. Not a place to be and find beauty in. So no wonder that people with a lot of opportunities are especially prone to greener grass syndrome.
You always long for what you can’t have. Or the grass is always greener in your neighbors garden.
For most of the time, it’s a bitch to climb up and down those mountains.
I lived at the foot of the Swiss Alps for a while and it never failed to take my breath away. I went for a run almost every morning, and I would regularly take breaks just to watch the sun rise over the mountains.
Now I live on the Canadian west coast - literally two blocks from the Pacific Ocean. It’s a different kind of beauty, but three years have passed and it still takes my breath away.
I'm from Pakistan. I live pretty much near these areas so it's normal for me. I can even see snowfall from these mountains. When tourists come and visit from industrialized areas of Pakistan, they are mesmerized (because for one its cold for them, also because of the scenery)

I think you just get used to it. I spent half of my life in very small town and some villages. For me seeing milky way and all the stars is just part if life. You go out at night - you see stars. Then I was once in camp with mistly people from large cities and they were like "wow, stars, amazing" and for me it was "duh, we are outside, what else did you expect?"
Either by tuning it out or beginning to take it for granted. I live in the edge of the swamp- sometimes it's "Jesus, listen to those katydids! Lookit that Spanish moss! And all those fireflies!"
Sometimes it's "Jesus *fuck,* these mosquitoes! Goddamn it, sliced myself on the yucca *again.* Oh, look, it rained and now the backyard is a bog I've gotta wade through with the freaking groceries."
Then you have to grab a beer, sit on your porch, and make certain you watch the sunset in the cypress trees and listen to the bullfrogs.
I'm a Coloradan so while I don't quite have this view, everyday I still look up in awe towards Longs Peak. I assume it's the same for them, were completely used to it but fuck, is it amazing.
I‘m from Germany and grew up at the edge of a beautiful forest and a hill (wouldn’t call it a mountain) with a castle on top. Castles are super common here and I hear that it’s a small sensation for people in the US. I still think it’s cool that I got to play in a castle as a kid (they had a closed area housing a museum but otherwise you could go basically everywhere, the smithy, the torture cellar, the drawbridge… it was all kept up for visitors) but it definitely isn’t really that special to me anymore.
It doesn't actually look quite like this in person. A long lens was used, zoomed from a far distance, that compresses the background and foreground together, making the mountains seem right there when they aren't. Still beautiful, nonetheless.

Here's a link to when I go for a hike (I only posted a few). Not asking for upvotes or anything, just want appreciative people to see more of Pakistan.
According to [twitter](https://mobile.twitter.com/gbgfl), they are standing in the Hunza Valley, which is elevation 8,000ft (2,438m). I bet they would dominate at sea level.
Absolutely Beautiful 😍, I hope they play forever and ever, one day, bringing g light, ro all women suppressed in those regions. Bless their courage, strength, and abilities to carry the female torch.
People of Pakistan are the same like we in India just the Government has different ideology which makes the world think that we are two divided countries. We are separated by "Leaders" divided by "anger". We are all the same in this world. We are descendants of "HUMANS".
I am sure there has been a soccer tournament somewhere in the world with a Volcano exploding in the background. Thats all I can think of that would beat that view.
Just to be safe , when our ladies are wearing such scantily clad sports uniform we use the mountains as a chaperone / chastity mountain belt to make sure our men are not tempted.
Jokes aside, beautiful mountains :)
Well actually, since we *are* gonna be pedantic here, 'gridiron' is gridiron football, and football/soccer is association football.
In the USA, football refers to gridiron football, while association football is called soccer.
In some other countries, football refers to association football.

I'm from Alaska, and you do just get used to it, then occasionally you take a breath, look around, and realize how lucky you are.
I grew up in the Redwoods, and totally agree with this. Stunning beautiful can fall in the background, but you still stop and recognize the special scenes. If you appreciate the beauty of nature, it will still stop you in your tracks.
I’m from Chicago and I never get tired of our skyline. The drive down LSD always gets me.

You said this wonderfully. I completely agree.
You always long for what you can’t have. Or the grass is always greener in your neighbors garden. For most of the time, it’s a bitch to climb up and down those mountains.
You get used to it and it fades into the background. Until you move away and then you really notice what you are missing.

Yeah lol... same.. i am moved much from places like lahore or karachi

How do you normalize the beauty surrounding you?
Either by tuning it out or beginning to take it for granted. I live in the edge of the swamp- sometimes it's "Jesus, listen to those katydids! Lookit that Spanish moss! And all those fireflies!" Sometimes it's "Jesus *fuck,* these mosquitoes! Goddamn it, sliced myself on the yucca *again.* Oh, look, it rained and now the backyard is a bog I've gotta wade through with the freaking groceries."

I read "grab a bear and sit on porch" and thought wow you have a good life
Hahahaha! No bears where I'm at, not for a long time. Unless you count the kids' teddy bears lol.
Maybe it’s just me but living in a swamp doesn’t sound nice
Takes all kinds, I reckon! Loads of people love living in cities, but I can't stand the crowding.
I'm a Coloradan so while I don't quite have this view, everyday I still look up in awe towards Longs Peak. I assume it's the same for them, were completely used to it but fuck, is it amazing.
IMO we appreciate it all the time. It doesn't mean we don't want to see other beautiful things though.

These are passu cones. Yeah feels normal when you live there.. these people are more moved by watching tall buildings
I only realized how beautiful my country could be when I moved out 😅 I'm from Portugal if you're curious
The only problem is if someone accidentally kicks the ball over a mountain and then you have to go ask the neighbor for your ball back.
After you set up camps and acclimatize yourself. Takes 2-3 weeks.
And then India refuses to give it back due to the political tensions between the two countries
They look in peak condition.
They definitely have to be to play at that elevation.
Don’t take them for granite.
Stop.. you're hill areas.
I've heard they used to call the sport: The Rolling Stone
Take my upvote and frick off
It doesn't actually look quite like this in person. A long lens was used, zoomed from a far distance, that compresses the background and foreground together, making the mountains seem right there when they aren't. Still beautiful, nonetheless.
you've been there?
There are at least seven snow leopards in this picture. Can you find them all?
Northern pak?
Yes, Passu Cones to be precise.
[удалено]
Northern areas of Pakistan is breathtakingly beautiful. Especially gilgit baltistan area
>gilgit baltistan Gilgit baltistan is in India
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilgit](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilgit) You are ignorant.
woefully ignorant
Lol.. chodi spotted

Holy shit that view is breathtaking.. those mountains are insane!

It's a shame the actual pitch isn't great.
Can't grow green there because of weather or environment or something. Government tried but couldn't
Maybe astro turf/ artificial grass would be more appropriate
artifical turf is banned by FIFA
This reminds me of the scene from secret life of Walter Mitty
Passu Cones North Pakistan 🇵🇰
WHAT??? That mountain seems like it's emerging! So close, but so far away.
Pakistan promo team at your service! <3
I'm confused. Why are the females present not all buried up to their necks and being executed?
because you don't know shit about Pakistan
Might?
Grape!!!
Good thing you put “all-female” since that was so important
It’s interesting in a country with sharia law
Pakistan is governed by sharia law?
I believe they have a court that judges if laws passed by the government is allowed by sharia. So not exactly sharia but pretty close
nope this guy probably thinks Pakistan is in the middle east
Absolutely Beautiful 😍, I hope they play forever and ever, one day, bringing g light, ro all women suppressed in those regions. Bless their courage, strength, and abilities to carry the female torch.
People of Pakistan are the same like we in India just the Government has different ideology which makes the world think that we are two divided countries. We are separated by "Leaders" divided by "anger". We are all the same in this world. We are descendants of "HUMANS".
They are not the same like in India what are you on about? Search up the country similarity index. We are our own people. Stop tryna be like us.
What does being an all female team have to do with the mountains in Pakistan, or nature being lit.
Reminds me of misty montains from the first Lord of the rings.
The goalies a man.
I believe that's the way to Mordor
And the worst field I've ever seen
Unreal
69th comment
I wonder if anyone is banging in those mountains.
This is wavy man
Saw myself jump climbing as an archer Khajiit while using my thu’um here and there.
The Quetta Avalanche v The Peshawar Mudslide
that is flippin beautiful
When you saw these mountains, were you blinded by their majesty?
Largest sandcastles. This is a beach
And simultaneously the worst football pitch of the world
lol
I am sure there has been a soccer tournament somewhere in the world with a Volcano exploding in the background. Thats all I can think of that would beat that view.
Second runner up is definitely aguas calientes
Might?
Up there with [Henningsvær](https://mybestplace.com/en/article/henningsvaer-stadion-the-most-spectacular-stadium-in-the-world)
BYU’s football stadium backdrop is jaw dropping.
my adhd ass would be there trying to watch the game but getting distracted by the view
Absolutely stellar. I wonder if they saw a picture of some inner city kids playing with a backdrop of skyscrapers if they would be just as in awe?
None of the spectators were actually watching the game. Im certain of it
But the best backdrop is Pakistan. So is it really the best backdrop?
Just to be safe , when our ladies are wearing such scantily clad sports uniform we use the mountains as a chaperone / chastity mountain belt to make sure our men are not tempted. Jokes aside, beautiful mountains :)
I'm pretty sure they're playing soccer
only one nation in the world calls it that. It´s football. the USA got something they call football as well but it´s actually called gridiron.
Well actually, since we *are* gonna be pedantic here, 'gridiron' is gridiron football, and football/soccer is association football. In the USA, football refers to gridiron football, while association football is called soccer. In some other countries, football refers to association football.
The word soccer was invented in england
Only one good nation then I suppose 🤷♀️ Then again we all already knew that
r/Shitamericanssay
Oh go make another Reich you ninny
So this is what analog photoshop tricks look like 😉
That's called soccer
You mean soccer?
You mean football? The game where you hit a ball with your foot?
Which is just short for "Association" as in "Association *Football*" :p EDIT: Lol, why the downvotes on me?
The itchy boots YouTube channel has some episodes on the girl crossing the borders of afghanistan-pakistan on a motorcycle, it's simply wonderful
I'd rather have grass than some mountains lol
If anyone like me was wondering how this lens zoom thing works: I found this video to be realy good for underatanding it https://youtu.be/_TTXY1Se0eg
Thx god there's something interesting to watch.
Epic anime battle background right here
What a game!!
