Mother Nature has a way about her that use to make me wonder whether she considers how she impacts on my day.
She is predictably unpredictable and does not seem to care too much that people are always complaining about her ways and she could not be bothered with their petty plans that she ‘screws up’ when she is doing her best in maintaining ecological equilibrium. Some even blame her for life’s calamites
Honestly, her attitude use to really tick me off, until I understood that she cannot function in a vacuum and please everybody all the time. She is brave, bold and full of vigour yet she can be very reliable when we stop trying to control her mood. She makes meteorological inventions puny and turn weather reporters into prankster and laughs at us when we rely solely on the certain uncertainty of the predictions.
Call it strangeness if you will, but I find Mother Nature a fantastic teacher who practises what she preaches and encourages me to heed the signs of cause and effect; and, the danger of being concerned with what people think of me. For all I know she may have been the one who King Solomon studied when he came to the wise conclusion in Proverbs 29:25.
Today I grumbled at not being able to enjoy any outdoor activity and then I turn around looked out the window, smiled and thanked her for teaching me how to make the best of my day and how I can continue to learn from her wisdom and ability to adapt and or change to yield the best conditions for maintaining a life of balance.
