Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This evocative collection of fables, observations, and vignettes seeks to reveal the patterns and meaning found in the natural world. The author, an ardent naturalist and keen observer of his surroundings, draws on nature to offer insights into the interconnectedness of all living beings, and the ways in which life's complexities may be illuminated by the natural world. With timeless wisdom, the author combines the story -telling traditions of Native American folklore with Western philosophical thought. He aims to provoke readers to consider broader implications hidden within the seemingly simple, and to challenge the reader into reconsidering their own perspectives. Ultimately, this book seeks to demonstrate the significance and power of the natural world as a source of guidance, wisdom, and harmony in an ever-changing and complex society.
