Nature has some perfections, to show us that she is the image of God; and some imperfections to show us that she is only God's image. . . .
~ by Blaise Pascal
Through greater intimacy with the natural world, we begin to appreciate its complexity and gain a clearer understanding of the relationship between the rains, the soul, and the plants, the animals and the trees, and how the welfare of one living being depends on that of another.
