"One impulse from a vernal wood
Can teach you more of ill or good Than all the sages can. " William Wordsworth |
As a girl growing up in New York City, I knew that being in nature was a special privilege. Over 80% of Americans live in urban areas and have lost the day-to-day contact with nature which reminds us of our interconnection to the earth and other living beings on the planet. Nature is our greatest teacher and we need time spent, mindfully, with her to realize our full potential.
