Nature

o   Nature is a wise and faithful teacher.

o   The natural world, to which we belong and in which we participate, has much to teach. We learn by observing, listening, smelling, tasting, touching, feeling, thinking, and reflecting.

o   We are not architects of the natural world. We are merely its assistants.

o   Nature offers abundant mysteries and rich surprises.

o   Not every seed germinates. Not every plant blooms. Not every tree bears fruit. Not every female gives birth.
