Nature's Meaning to Me

Nature to me is everything that is sacred in this world. If it wasn’t for nature we wouldn’t have anything. Music, art, food, and religion would be out of existence if the world didn’t supply us with them. Most people don’t appreciate nature as well as they should. I believe that animals and weather spawned music into the minds of humans. If you ever go out into an open field and hear the crickets chirruping, the edge of an ocean and hear the seagulls and the waves crashing, or in the middle of the woods and hear all the animals scurrying and calling out to each other forming a joyful sound, you know what I mean when I say nature created music. Then through music man could communicate with each other witch eventually turned into words and words are what we base everything after, for example intelligence and expression of feelings. Most art is mimicking natural phenomenon such as animals, plants, mountains, oceans, and human beings who originated in nature no matter how domesticated we get. We still have primal animal instincts deep in our subconscious. We still kill out of necessity. So without nature we would starve because all of the food that we eat comes from killing some living thing in nature no matter how processed it is. I also believe that without the stars and the sun to give us a greater consciousness that just to live, eat, shit and die. To think there is something looking down upon us that is larger than we could even imagine. Originally the sun was the one god that looked after us all and protected us from the cold and predators of the night. The stars were the spirits that showed us the way in the dark but they could be misleading so it was better to follow the one, the sun, so you were always safe. When it is said that man was created in god’s image I can see the truth behind that statement because all people have good warmth inside as well as a dark side. Everyone has nightmares or at least has had one. So all in all I believe that without nature we would all be lost in existence and would probably be eaten by some predator that was bigger that us if we weren’t able to communicate how to get away from them. And we would be lost spiritually or that least more lost.
