Inspiration - Lessons from nature


Human beings are inclined to be selfish, fearing to part with any of their possessions, fearing they may not be able to replace them.

Nature, on the other hand, is constantly on the giving side. The trees do not fear giving up their leaves in the fall, because they might not return in the spring.

Have you ever heard of a living creature of any kind-when dwelling in its natural habitat-starving to death?

There is no dearth of raw materials. The earth is ever ready to give generously from its stores of minerals and vegetables. There is no scarcity of labor to remove the raw materials and to convert them into manufactured products.

"Whenever man comes up with a better mousetrap, nature immediately comes up with a better mouse."  -James Carswell
