Like music and art, love of nature is a common language that can transcend political or social boundaries.

Go see him and love him, and through him as through a window look into Nature's warm heart.

My paw is holy
herbs are everywhere
my paw
herbs are everywhere
My paw is holy
everything is holy
my paw
everything is holy.

If we had a keen vision and feeling of all ordinary human life,
it would be like hearing the grass grow and the squirrel's heart beat,
and we should die of that roar which lies on the other side of silence.
— George Eliot
To find the universal elements enough;
to find the air and the water exhilarating;
to be refreshed by a morning walk
or an evening saunter;
to be thrilled by the stars at night;
to be elated over a bird's nest
or a wildflower in spring -
these are some of the rewards of the simple life.
— John Burroughs
