Knowing how the nature of nature so to speak is not bad but when it is our personality and identity face to face with God’s living and breathing perfect creation of nature we can better understand our lives and why it is dependant on nature. Creation communicates with us in a way we can not explain. When we see something in creation we truly find beautiful and amazing, we are left speechless and curious; curious to gain knowledge of the truth we cannot quite put into words that changes our lives.

Nature has the ability to lead one to an improved comprehension of life. That is the point that Ralph Waldo Emerson, famous American essayist, wanted to convey to his readers in his long essay, Nature. In the essay, Emerson is saying that each and every person needs to broaden their own unique grasping of the universe that surrounds them. He is expressing this because he believes that people take nature for granted and do not really understand its purpose and impact. The author is stating all of this with a persuasive tone.
The reason he characterizes nature like this is so that we will take his word and go out to view and appreciate nature. 2.

The thoughts and designs pertaining to the building do not construct the building. Furthermore, Philo asserts, “a mental world or universe of ideas requires a cause as much as does a material world or universe of objects” (Hume 37). In other words, the existence of an intelligent designer does not necessarily explain how the world came to exist nor does it explain the cause of the order in the world. There has merely been a shift from the material realm into ideas. To find the cause of the world, we must find the cause of God’s thoughts.
Anselm expected that God would create all man holy. For Anselm the complete reason for God to create man pretty much came down to man choosing to love and praise God, the ultimate good, and receiving happiness in enjoying God.

Floating about in all types of literature, there are many legends as to how the earth was created; these legends are known as creation myths. A creation myth offers answers to questions that ask how the earth was created, and explains the social customs of today as well as the workings of the natural world by telling an elaborate story. The Cherokee Indians have spread their beliefs on this topic throughout generations through oral tradition. Recent authors have taken these myths to paper to preserve history and to spread them even further around the world. “How the World Was Made” is a creation myth that not only offers an abundance of information regarding the origin of earth, but also supports the social traditions of today’s society and attempts to explain the intangible, natural workings of the world.
Nature is one of the most powerful and mysterious forces of the universe that influences man greatly. Philosophically considered, the universe is composed of nature and soul. It controls all the living, non-living, human, non-human, organic, inorganic and visible, invisible things. It rules over the universe like a monarch and man can’t escape from the influence of nature; he is influenced by both nature and culture. To man nature is the pure and original source of happiness.
