Before books were bound, before they were even written, man gained his understanding of the world by simply watching and being part of nature. Our industrialization has gotten us away from appreciating nature as a teacher, but she is a forgiving guide and is always ready to resume the lessons whenever we are ready to learn again. What better place can we go to learn about life than from where it originates? What great lessons has nature taught you recently?
