Yet most of us have separated ourselves from the natural world to such an extent that we now experience it as somewhere we visit.
That got me thinking…
Some of us spend our lives studying animals.
Their behaviour. Their communication. Their relationships. Their intelligence. Their strange little habits. Others ignore most of nature.
I wonder how they would describe humans?
How would they describe YOU?
Would they see someone who notices them?
Someone who respects the land they share?
Someone who understands that the spider, the crow, the bee, the fox, the tree and the fungi beneath our feet aren't just background scenery to a human life?
Or someone moving so fast through an artificial world that they've stopped noticing any of it?
There is wonder happening around us every single day.
We just have to remember to look.
So here's my challenge today:
Go and find one thing in nature that makes you stop and think WOW.
Then ask yourself:
What could I do differently today because I remembered I'm part of this too?
