Ahhh!! Nature migrates! I love this assertion. Yes, we ARE allowed to ask for more!
I live in Minnesota, and I've often felt a bit of a rub when needing to go back home to visit family in Tennessee, or go on a small trip. I wish I felt comfortable "wintering." But this is a wonderful reflection of the both/and here. Whew, got me again.
I’ve predominantly lived in a coastal environment in a temperate climate where there are no dramatic shifts in temperature between seasons.
I’ve instinctively been in tune with the tide and the season most of my life. I’m fortunate to live somewhere I can observe the sun and moon shift position against the horizon through the season. I also spend an extraordinary amount of time outside. Typically swimming year round and living by nature’s clock because of that.
My observation is that when you live in tune with nature, you are inevitably very much a part of the seasons and cycles.
You can’t do the same activities in the same way year round. Lows don’t come as a surprise, or as something I need to “try and work out”. They’re all part of the rhythm.
My other observation is that people have completely lost this connection with modern lifestyles. They totally disrespect themselves and the environment as a result.
I’m sure all the hurt and damage in the world comes from this disconnection. Humans have become aliens on their own planet and the result is utter annihilation born out of little appreciation for anything.
