Essays On Nature

Instead of using a blog, I've decided to incorporate my essays into this web site. The reason is that easy site navigation will provide you with a more meaningful integration of the ideas suggested in these essays with other parts of this web site.

The growing list of essays are

• Patterns In Nature -- Unifying Principles : A discussion on how patterns in nature contain unifying organizational principles.
• What Is A Pattern In Nature? : An essay I wrote after a friend asked me to explain my definition of patterns in nature.
• We Are All Connected : All patterns in nature (including we humans) are connected. While the Ancient Chinese "Li" has always said this, Western science is now beginning to verify this old idea.
• Nature's Three Voices - To Know All Things : Nature speaks to us with an aesthetic voice, a spiritual voice, and a logical voice.
• South Georgia -- Crown Jewel of the Southern Ocean : This was written as I sat alone with nature on South Georgia Island in the Southern Ocean in 2004.
• Farewell To Stromness : A mosaic of memories as I visited the old whaling stations at South Georgia Island.
