Happy birthday to your supermom, David and thanks for this introduction to Thic Nhat Hahn's view about nature. Like you, i sense a strong connection between me and nature. I, too, believe that urbanism and its culture has made us forget the beauty, vitality, and serenity of nature.

Thanks everyone for the good vibes for my mother. She had a beautiful weekend with all her "kids" great and grand kids and lots of family. I hope to write more about her humble life close to Mother Earth.
