Nature: Our Great, Ancient Teacher

What makes a teacher great?

The greatest teachers allow failure, but provide all the instruments for success. They encourage curiosity and face any consequences with their pupils. They lead with patience to sharpen the youth. They allow freedom to explore all possibilities but will guide you back to the truth.

All of such teachings have been engrained in the systematic creation of the natural world around us. Nature has been our teacher since the dawn of time.

It has given us the means to survive but disciplines our failures harshly. It is deluged with lessons and specimen to study and interact with. Its patience with our naive minds has given us the time we need to develop.

The systematic curriculum of nature grants us the freedom to explore but ultimately brings us back to the Truth. Even as we divulge into the mysteries of the cosmos nature will always be there to guide us.

Nature is our great and ancient teacher. It has humbly shown us the way.

    And the lessons we absorb by watching nature’s animals. A dog, so loyal. A cat who’d scratch without a notice. A horse that would make eye contact with a human to relate. Just the other day; A deer in the middle of a highway, would stop and gaze at our car. ‘As in, thanks for slowing down.’
