Nature’s PathwayI wonder what they’d do,
If one day they realize, that you,
Although apparently plain and simple,
Are the key to what’s left of Nature’s Beauty.
Epilogue:
At first glance, the scene depicted in the picture merely resembled an ordinary nature reserve, with little maintenance. The stairway, which has obviously been around for quite a few years and littered with dried leaves, seems nowhere near unique. However, upon further examination, it dawned on me that although advancement of science and technology has greatly benefited mankind, it has compromised nature’s presence. Furthermore, it cannot effectively replace what nature can provide for humanity.
Today, much of nature’s beautiful landscape has been destroyed to make room for man-made infrastructure. However, nature, or what is left of it, still provides man with a haven away from their hectic urban lifestyles. Despite this, just as how I thought this picture seemed “ordinary” when I first saw it, I wonder how many people pass by nature and do not even notice her at all.
This old, plain and simple stairway literally exposes more of nature to us. It inspired me to question, and imagine, how people would react should they be able to look pass it’s, and Nature’s, simplistic appearance.
