In the beginning, Time created Nature, and by the by, came to place humans among It. But Humanity fogot about its Mother Land and Father Time, and all the Natural Laws the two had created in Harmony. Instead, the people thought up their own less harmonious Order, for they did not learn from Nature, and like little children they were lost without a more experienced Guide. And People took from Nature and Time what was not for Them to take, and Humanity came to be Banished by itself, from the beautiful, natutral land. Thus it was that the village, the town and the city, and all the “Wilderness” was born, for man came to despise Nature and its simpler Laws, like a stubborn child. And so the Troubles began, and the lost children refused to reconcile themselves with their Birth Parents, hating “The Wild” and hating “Death”. And it will not be until we learn to co-exist with our Elders, that we shall again feel truly at Home.

Amen.
