Farmers shoot squirrels, crows, magpies, and hang them up on trees to warn Mother Nature to get it together or else. Much notice she takes, being in league with God.

When I say, Mother Nature designed us, or programmed us, I am simply referring to the process of natural selection.","author":"Abhijit Naskar","tags":["biologists","biology","human-nature","human-psychology","mother-nature","naturalism","nature","nature","neuropsychology"],"id":55650,"author_id":"Abhijit+Naskar"},{"text":"This story is dedicated to all those who help, and all those who care.","author":"James D.

Everything has a vibration that spirals inward or outward — and everything turns together in the same direction at the same time. This vibration keeps going: it becomes born and expands or closes and destructs — only to repeat the cycle again in opposite current. Like a lotus, it opens or closes, dies and is born again. Such is also the story of the sun and moon, of me and you. Nothing truly dies. All energy simply transforms.","author":"Suzy Kassem","tags":["afterlife","birth","born","born-again","circle","circles","closes","cosmic","cosmic-heart","creation","currents","cycle","cycle-of-life","cycles","death","destruction","destructs","dies","direction","dreams","dying","end","ending","energy","evolution","expands","geometria","harmonic-principles","harmonics","heart","infinity","knowledge","life","living-things","lotus","lotus-flower","matter","metaphysics","mother-nature","natural-world","nature","opposite","philosopher","philosophy","physics","poet","reality","rebirth","reborn","reincarnation","relgion","repeat","repeats","science","soul","spirals","spiritual","spirituality","suzy-kassem","theory","time","transform","transforms","true","turns","universe","vibration","vibrations","wisdom"],"id":83003,"author_id":"Suzy+Kassem"},{"text":"Come with me into the woods where spring isadvancing, as it does, no matter what,not being singular or particular, but oneof the forever gifts, and certainly visible.","author":"Mary Oliver","tags":["eternity","forever","mother-nature","spring"],"id":84337,"author_id":"Mary+Oliver"},{"text":"Mother Nature offers her nurturing essence to us all freely with no expectation of reciprocation.","author":"Amy Leigh Mercree","tags":["inspirational","joyful-living","joyful-living-101","life","mother-nature","mother-nature","nature","nature","about-life","of-the-day","of-the-week","twitter"],"id":89943,"author_id":"Amy+Leigh+Mercree"}],"pagination":{"page":1,"page_size":10,"total":40,"pages":4,"next":"?page=2\u0026page_size=10"}}
