quote:We often expect that nature will fall in line with our requirements. But we never think why nature should abide by our expectations. Nature has its own rules and regulations and we must respect them. Instead of changing those rules we should change ourselves and enjoy what the God is giving us.
Yes. And after all - we are nature. The changing is all about seing this.
Hans Hoffman, the great painter and teacher, once chastised his young student Jackson Pollock for his fierce, drippy paintings. "They don't look like nature!" he criticized.
Drippy paintings sounds good. Richard, I grew up in Oregon, where about 300 days a year it is either raining, or looks like it's going to. It's very green there under the clouds. When the sun comes out it is soft because it filters through moisture in the air. The rain cleans the air. There are trees everywhere that make a lot of oxygen.
