People, like Mother Nature herself, are diverse, complex and often contradictory

The delicate soft scented petals of a spring flower,

contrasting the sharp unforgiving needles of Arizonian cacti

A comparative gentle walk, flat lining, through the landscape of the Netherlands,

or facing the more challenging potentially treacherous ups and downs of Himalayan climbs

Time like the wind, creates the ever-changing sand dunes of Saharan heat

Simultaneously forming blinding snowdrifts in polar extremities

Harsh environments, yet adaptable elements of life exists

Like nature herself, we possess the winds of change

While some navigate life’s more dangerous routes, chancing the storms of the southern cape,

others sometimes unconsciously drift in the potential doldrums of the Equator,

calm and peaceful or stagnant and dead?

Depending on time or mood

Our experiences can be warm and embracing like a gentle summer breeze 

Or as deep and cutting as the icy north wind

Her nature, diverse across the whole Planet

Our nature, encased within a single mind

Somewhere between these contrasting extremes

Somewhere lies a place of peace and calm
