We all hold different values for those things around us. A field full of grasses and wildflowers is home, contentment, and bliss for the farmer. A drive-by sighting of a field of wildflowers is a wonderment to me. To another it could seem like wasted space and thoughts of commercial development would be a better use of the land. We may be blessed with many a thing, but if there is no appreciation, what value does it have? Wishing for more is not the answer, gratitude for all that we have is a better way to fill our cups.

I've always felt if we could get people to take a closer look at nature, they might begin to appreciate it, and once they appreciate it, they might want to protect it.
