Nature is composed entirely of sticks, dirt, fall-down places, biting and stinging things, and savageries too numerous to list. And I'm not the only one who feels this way. Man has been building cities since the year oughty-ought, just to get away from this stuff.” Sue Grafton | |

I think it is linked to mental health somehow, but nature is cruel and that's basically it. Everyone seems to think it's some sort of benevolent force but all I can see is that almost every animal in the wild dies a horrific death simply to feed the next thing. I see that as cruelty. Also, we as humans argue that to be indifferent is to be evil. I happen to agree with this analogy, but the problem is that reinforces my view of nature itself. It has been argued to me as a point of good that nature is not good or evil, but indifferent. I | |
