Mother Nature
Leif has a new article posted in the library. Here are the first paragraphs:
Deep within the midst of mankind’s ancient past lie clues to the elements of human experience which can calm, restore and energize our minds, bodies and spirit. Both our physical bodies and the structures we live in provide the home for our minds and spirits.
If we neglect the healthy care and maintenance of our bodies, the burden of poor physical condition can reduce our mental effectiveness and result in sagging spirits. If we do a poor job of constructing and maintaining our homes, work places, communities and public and private landscapes, we also shortchange both our productive capacity and depth of enjoyment of life.
I think most of us want to get the most out of life. After all, even a lengthy human life is in reality a rather brief journey. We live in a complex and rapidly changing world, but I suspect that some of life’s most deeply satisfying moments come when we are able for a time to step aside from the hustle and bustle and enjoy some of life’s simple pleasures.
Leif’s articles appear in the Saturday edition of the Northfield News, in the Home and Real Estate section. All his previous articles are archived in our web library, going back to 2001.
