That quote by Alice Walker cracked me up !!! LOL!!! Connecting with nature definitely works for me. Up in the high elevations I sometimes just listen. I can hear and feel the energy of the woods. Great for the soul and for our health overall. The story about the monkey knowing how to heal was good too. We can learn alot from animals. They survive just fine out in the wild....can we say the same of ourselves?? This reminds me of the big Tsunami we had a few years back. All the animals felt it coming and fled before the waves reached the shoreline. Alot of them warned people of what was coming. THEY are in touch with nature and with God. If we follow this example and strengthen our connection with God we will alos know what to do for our health and well being. Nature has been called God's Country because when we connect with nature we are also connecting with God.We don't have to focus on our jobs, our bills and everything else we think is so darn important in our ego driven worlds when we take a break and get away from it all.

I love to walk in the wooded park in our neighborhood and I take my three dogs with me. As they smell and observe what God has given us, I also enjoy the scenery and thank the Lord for allowing me to share in the many phenominal forms of creation.

I agree completely. Being disabled for five years and home a lot I rejoice and renew my senses by just listening to birds or looking at butterflies. I have two beautiful Bouganvillas in the front of my house and they are always changing, which always brings different kinds of wild life. If it weren't for these things, which may seem insignificant to some people, my life would be very sad. But every day is a new beginning.
