The more we walk in unspoiled nature…the more we hear her sounds and see her sights…the more and more we realize the Native American’s had it right… On our walk the other day…once again we were in awe… let me share with you to some of the sights and sounds…some of the wonders that we heard and saw. We heard many different birds singing…with various musical abilities We heard the sound of water meeting the land and the wind whispering to the trees. We saw the delicate intricacies of the spiders and the webs they all had spun. We saw the beauty of the lake as its water glimmered in the sun. We saw the bright yellows of the smooth beggarticks that all around us grew…the purples of the climbing asters and mist flowers painted blue We saw the vibrant colors of the butterflies…Yellow, pink and white… and herons everywhere we looked…in colors blue and white. We saw alligators lurking in the marsh…moss filled trees alive and dead…we saw moorhens swimming with the alligators with eagles flying overhead. So you can see how, with every walk we take in nature…the more we hear her sounds and see her sights…the more and more convinced we are…the Native American’s had it right… It’s also way we try to walk in the footprints of their ancestors as often as we can… so we can feel the same wonders they felt walking in spaces that have not been rearranged by man.
