A New Path

So far in my blog posts I have not really addressed the concept of human and nature harmony. While still assessing the damage we are causing and how this is being mitigated, I wish to take a new path. It is not however this path that I imply in my title; this is a greater and far more important path that must be followed by the entire human race. As Alan Watts so aptly suggests in the video above, I believe that the human race is devoted to the destruction of life. We ruin our world to gain more, when really we should appreciate what is already there. Of course it is in our nature to seek the best of both of these options – gain more and destroy less - and what I would like to explore is the possibilities of this dream.

By definition, harmony is the state of being in agreement, cooperation or unison, which I think – as some of my previous blog posts show - is not something achieved by humans thus far. Nevertheless this is not the only way; there is another path; a new path. We exist in the time of a great revolution, that of sustainability; out of necessity we must aim to harmonise with nature. Like that of the coral polyp and Zooxanthellae a symbiotic relationship with nature is right here in front of us. It is this that my blog will now focus on.

I will endeavour to tie up any topics I have already started but wish to open this topic as soon as possible; the personal importance of this topic far outweighs those I have previously started and it is with passion that I want to continue this blog.
