Smith: Returning to Nature

Smith: Returning to Nature

"Study nature, love nature, stay close to nature. It will never fail you." – Frank Lloyd Wright

With these words, Smith takes us into Part 1 of 7 in his book, Honoring the Sacred EarthHonoring the Sacred Earth, and his carefully chosen quotes are a lovely highlight in each section, making me feel like I am on this journey with spiritual luminaries from throughout the centuries. This Part is all about reconnecting with Nature, and remembering that we exist within and as a part of Nature. We are made of the same stuff as Nature, and follow the same organizational plan. Further, we can never achieve our full potential if we separate ourselves completely from Nature. Smith tells us that we "must connect in a natural and mindful way so that we can learn and develop spiritually as beings" (7). As spiritual beings? Maybe.
