    The transportation systems that you use most growing up are lily to be the ones that you are most comfortable with using as you get older. For many people this might mean that public transportation is not comfortable and requires more effort to transition to using it.

  • 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?

    Yes, I notice my mindset and thoughts are shaped by the environment that I am in. I am more relaxed and at peace when I spend time outside.
