  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Nature Enjoy the Sunrise/Sunset
    Father Thomas Berry says, "...our primary purpose is celebration. Celebration of the dawn and the sunset and the different seasons of the year is a religious ritual, a way in which humans can establish their integral relationship with the universe, with the planet Earth." Respond to Berry's assertion.

    I honestly have nothing to say about this quote as I'm not really religious and have beliefs in this certain idea.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Nature Spend Time Outside
    Rachel Carson said that we need the beauty and mysteries of the natural world for our spiritual and emotional development. Does that ring true for you? What are the implications for a culture that spends most of its time indoors?

    Enjoying the real world rather than being cooped up in a building is definitely a different feeling and experience. I think that after all the time of growing up inside, this generation doesn't really know how to enjoy the real world.

    I plan on using the day as the time for any social activities, but exercising at will be strictly at night time just to keep a balance.
