Seek Nature Teacher

To manage life better

An oak tree eye @Seema

Nature is so chock-full

of great teachers, to offer lessons,

to inspire and motivate you,

to bring back, to the right path.

But if you dismiss it —

busy with streaming, binge-watching,

endless scrolling, or trying to fit in,

because you don’t want, to be left out.

you are digging own ditch.

Those fabricated, manipulative things

can never teach you, what nature can.

So, take a break, step out, and seek

get enchanted — by the wisdom

in the ant, the dandelions,

the migratory swallows, oaks

the honeybees, the spiderwebs,

the chrysalis, the purslane.

Learn from them, life philosophies,

diminish suffering, do better.
