This interconnectivity is what we’re after. It’s funny how prevalent in nature it is. Of course it happens naturally and is how eco-systems survive. The fungi grows on the dead tree. The bird carries the seed. The wolves allow the trees to grow. Yet humans have to think far too much to realise this rather than let it happen. We are sedentary, we have to force ourselves to activity. It’s hard to get up and go to the gym after a hard day’s work, it’s very difficult. Sitting down and watching shit on Netflix is the easy choice and it’s the choice our body wants. It also wants us to devour all the crisps and ice cream.
But what it wants is not what it needs, for in a few months the body would be used to going to the gym instead of sitting down, and it will thank you for it. You’ll move better feel better and perform better. Likewise our bodies, or maybe here I should say minds, want that pizza or chocolate, yet all that does is help us gain weight we don’t need. If we can get our wants and desires to a standard that mimics the natural world, working in tandem with our bodies, maybe we’ll feel better about the natural world.
