All things bright and beautiful

One of the most amazing things to me is nature. The concept of nature is deep & intriguing. Humans, animals, water bodies, lands, plants, fruits, air, sun, trees, soils, etc; are all amazing. The beauty, complexity, operation, and sustenance of nature are beyond comprehension.

Sometimes, I think deeply to understand the manner & reasons for natural phenomena and I get freaked. Talking 'bout how thunder strikes, how the sun rises and sets, where the wind begins from and ends, the process of growth in plants, humans & animals, the waves of the ocean, how the weather changes, the movement of the clouds in the sky, the reason and manner you and I respond to stimulus, how things exist and change in their own accord in seasons, everything… Amazing! Reminds me of the first verse of Nicolle's song -Redeemer. "Who taught the sun where to stand in the morning..."

Irrespective of the natural hazards including the recklessness of humans, I’m super grateful for nature. If you truly love nature, you will find beauty everywhere. Talking about the recklessness of humans, we all contribute to destroying the natural environment, in one way or the other. Yes, you! 😏 How? You fart without mercy. Okay, that's not it. I mean the burning of fossil fuels (coal, gas, oil...), deforestation, improper disposal/burning of waste disposal including plastics, e.t.c These activities and more send heat-trapping gases into the atmosphere, which contributes to climate change- A very big health threat facing humanity. That's a topic for another day.

                                                                    

For me, the most amazing stuff about nature is the process of growth in humans. From Foetus to a grown adult. I remember asking a friend if we grow from our legs or from our heads. What’s behind the height and development of humans? 😹 Also, why do we fart? How does the anus know that it is supposed to produce a powerful odour after eating beans or egg? It’s quite cute but mysterious. It's not even cute. 😂 Till now, I don't understand how rainbow is formed. Ehn! I heard it's formed due to sunlight striking rain droplets in the air. Ok o! Why are the colours ROYGBIV? Why is Burgundy colour not part of the collection? Let me rest small before I start overthinking. 😩
