Nature

 I recall being on a train for work, feeling utterly depressed about my job and the dreadful progression of my day. 

As I gazed out the window, I noticed that just eight feet away from the railway and slag, there was grass, followed by trees, and then an array of birds and animals. 

It was in that moment I realized two distinct realities were unfolding simultaneously: I was immersed in a social network due to my work, yet also existing within nature. 

Unfortunately, nature had been relegated to the back seat in my life. 

Now, I use nature as my guide and navigate society in a more relaxed manner.
