Simplification

Grand Canyon-9316

As with anything in our feeble human existence, we seek to simplify so as to comprehend…We see massive networks of living rivers and their earthen conduit as simply a thing to be visited and viewed, subjected to selfies and bumper sticker passport stamps…yet, we walk this earth with her heartbeat profoundly displayed in complicated networks of water bringing life to the epidermal soil in one place and retreating from diseased atrophying limbs in another…If we stop to see her for her complexities, one day, we may see our viral influence on her health as she gracefully contends with the natural process of aging…We may come to understand that being good stewards of this earth is not abstract altruism, but an essential symbiotic action to secure the fate of an ecosystem of which we are a part.
