Gift of Nature

Nature is too complex for the human intellect. The only way to experience it is to be in it like the current scarce indigenous tribes of the Amazon River Basin where all resources are gifted by beautiful nature. Humans were born into such an environment and that is where they are truly at home with nature. It is where the only knowledge is of what to eat and how to build simple and temporary dwellings that are eventually left for nature to take care of when the group moves on to a more bountiful location. It is where beauty is provided by the birds, insects and other species be they fauna or flora. It is where belief systems are conceived from observing the surroundings and solidifying the relationship of humans to nature.
