State of The Plamet

Class on Tuesday was very interesting. Fist I would just like to say that I do not really like reading about nature and other stuff like that. I find it real hard to experience some thing without you really being at this special place. I believe that people have their own opinion and preference to the things they enjoy reading Mr Corrigan :)
The scripture that really stuck out to me about the environment is Matthew 6:26-28. It says "Look at the birds of the air.... Observe how the lilies of the field grow. That to me is just telling me to look at all of God's creation around us. There are times I get up just stare at the things around me such as the trees, sky, clouds, plants, grass and all sorts of things that our God has created. The things that he created around me is so breath taking I can hardly speak at those times of silence. If you haven't read the scriptures that Mr. Corrigan gave us, I strongly think that you should give it a glance.

I enjoyed doing that activity in class simply because we got to hear all the different sentences that stuck out to everyone. There were a couple of sentences that really stuck out to me the first time I read State Of The Planet. The sentence that grabbed my attention was "Poety should be able to comprehend the earth". To me that means in order to write poetry about about nature and the earth you must really experience it and know how to translate it in words. I find it very insightful how someone can write a poem about insects eating birds and the sky being so blue just by sitting while observing nature. This story has really inspired me to gave nature poems or novel a chance. Hopefully in class we will be able to go outside and be one with nature.
