Is Nature Simply A Nuisance?

Nature can be a bother. Whether it be mowing the lawn or a storm that ruins plans, nature can get in the way of our hectic lives, but without it what would life be like? A black-and-white world of stress and anxiety? The first picture below is from my trip to Bogota, Colombia. This huge metropolis is sitting in the middle of beautiful mountains and this scenic view is only a twenty minute drive away, but most locals have no clue it exists because they don't find the time to look up and enjoy the mountain views that they take for granted. The same happens in our daily lives. Living in Peachtree City, we live in one of the greenest cities in the country with nature in every direction, but when was the last time you stopped to enjoy it? On the other hand when was the last time you let nature bother you.. Whether is was a rainstorm that caused a game to be cancelled or a cold winter day that made you sick. Nature can be a bother and we may take it for granted, but we need to value it before we lose it! If not we will be stuck living in our brick-and-concrete, black-and-white world!
