All my life through, the new sights of Nature made me rejoice like a child. – Marie Curie (1867-1934), the Polish-French physicist chemist famous for her pioneering research on radioactivity. She was the first person honored with two Nobel Prizes in physics and chemistry.
All that is beautiful, delightful and affable in this world, the silence of the night, the loveliness of the morning, the beauty of the day, the melody of the breeze, the fragrances of the flower, the precious lives on earth is nothing but heaven breaking through the veil of nature. The rays of the rising sun, the hint of spring in the air, the blue sky, the blooming tree, the morning song of the lark, the clouds that gather round the setting sun, the full round …show more content…
After the sun sets, out come the stars floating on and blinking from afar. Every night come out the convoy of beauty, and light the universe with admonishing smile. Where can you find such variety, such diversity, such loveliness, such beauty and such magnificence? Where can you find such pure, genuine, childlike love except in Nature? There is nothing more inspiring, more astonishing, so readily energetic to the romantic eagerness, the thoughtful reflection and the moral sentiments than the works of Mother Nature.
As we attach ourselves with nature, it makes us delight every moment. We look and feel. Sometimes we get it right, sometimes not. Mother Nature often baffles us and defies our reasoning, but she always remains interesting. If it ever appears not to be so, it’s because we are not united with her. Through nature, our logic develops into psychology, out sense moves to sensation, our moral matures to principles. It imparts vision into science and instills science into the human …show more content…
Think for a moment that if the distance between the sun and the earth reduces by a small margin from 97 to 90 million miles, this planet will grow too hot for our life; the whole world will become a barren desert like the Sahara. On the contrary, if the distance increases from 97 to 100 million miles, the whole world may become too cold (-20 degree Fahrenheit or -20°F) for any human to live. Another example, how ozone layer protects us: a 3 mm thick ozone layer 20 miles above the Earth absorbs ultraviolet radiations from the Sun saving us from all health risks. Take one more example: the tsunami that hit Japan on March 11, 2011. It was the day the earth moved slightly shifting on its axis and make its spin a little faster and the day a little shorter by 1.8 millionths of a second. But the result was a powerful earthquake, 9.0 on the Richter scale, ever to hit Japan. With come and gone of ice ages, perhaps by wobbles in the earth’s orbit, sea level had rise and fall by hundreds of feet, with shorelines moving many miles in either direction. That’s how Mother Nature is. To some, Mother Nature is just physics, chemistry or biology – it means nothing more than it physically appears; but to many, it is our Mother Nature that rears us, cures us and cares us a little better. Let nature take its course. The central idea is not to meddle with nature.
