On land and sea and air, there is a vast variety of fauna and flora. Each has its place and its role to play in the universe .
Around us are signs and these lead to our creator. To reconnect with these signs is but a reconnection with God.
To learn to love our creator we first must learn to love the creation. Today we are asking man to help sort out the enormous problems of our world, but how can he achieve this without that connection with mother earth.
If we look at the leading environmentalists and the people who are involved in various movements, we will see when we look deep into their lives that it was when they were young as children through playing in the great outdoors, free and totally submerged into the wild scenes around them they grew up with nature, so learned to appreciate and fall in love with the natural world. it became part of them as it was for many if not all of the past traditional tribes and communities. Sadly today we view them as primitive, but they are or were the ones with great wisdom which they gained through the connection with mother earth. I refer to or with tremendous sadness as we in the so called modern west were the ones that wiped them off the face of the earth, or infected their communities so much with western lifestyle they too were driven to drugs, alcohol like the Aborigines of Australia.
