Most recently, we considered the fact that in Genesis, God is depicted declaring what was accomplished on each day of creation to be good.
Artists, musicians, and poets have typically found inspiration in the created order. The goodness of experiencing nature grounds and heals us. God made nature beautiful, and there doesn't seem to be in reason why it had to be so. In every moment, millions of special, seemingly one-time events happen that can touch us if we are paying attention: the flight of a butterfly, the play of the sunlight, a gentle breeze.
At Chowan, we are blessed to be in an environment in which we have instant access to the beuaty of nature just outside our walls.
