REFLECTION QUESTIONNature Spend Time OutsideRachel 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?
Trevar Helland 4/28/2021 4:33 PMThis statement rings true for me, there are many reasons other than spiritual and emotional development for the natural world; for example, exercise. The major implications of a culture that spends to much time inside is obesity from a sedentary lifestyle and a lost appreciation from a generation of the beauty and necessity of the natural world.
