Journal 54: Nature's Nature

Nature to me is only there for the better good of the human race. Yet nature has its threatening side to humans. Nature to me reflects many aspects of our own life that we make more complicated and nature simplifies it for us to see. Life isn't always beautiful many times it has a nasty side to it. Nature is there for us to use but to use with care and to not over use it. Once we over use its resources nature would bite back hard and take back what ever we have taken from it. I see global warming as a warning for our race and that the more we waste the higher the sea level will raise and the lower the temperature will get in the winter. Earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, and tsunamis are all ways nature shows it destructive force to us. Nature has many sweet sides and like a person it also has a darker and violent side. Nature presents itself the way Dickinson reveals it in her poems with subtle details of it cruel side and covering it up with its good side.
