The Great Why

Humans should, with intention, make themselves available to and aware of natural beauty. We should stare at night skies, at rivers and lakes and forest and glades.  We should consistently place ourselves in nature even in small areas like our back yard to see the small as well as the vast. This is a worthy task for humans with reimbursements that far exceed visual stirrings.  It makes us better.  Natural beauty creates in us a sense of wellbeing and gratefulness and pushes us to examine our spiritual understanding of life and the cosmos.  It makes us simultaneously insignificantly small and comprehensively immense and sets us firmly in our rightful place.  Natural beauty, over time, produces its greatest reward by creating in us an overwhelming desire to know why and thus the greatest experience of our lives can begin, that adventure of seeking The Great Why.
