I believe it is a human fallacy to believe the earth is our planet. We humans, instead, live on earth; we’re only one part of a larger system that has been nearly perfected over time. Looking to nature for answers, for calm, for escape, and for appreciation is a great way to keep things in perspective. For example, all of a sudden, the stressful project at work that has consumed for the past month you may not seem so life-or-death consumed when peering out into the Grand Canyon.
“Look deep into nature and then you will understand everything better.”
Albert Einstein (1879-1955) ― Theoretical physicist
