The discordance of nature pulsates loudly in my heart as a source of inspiration and guidance. By discordance, I mean of how nature in our contemporary era is ceaselessly objectified and manipulated by humans. The current affairs of humans and nature are fused into a cluster without demarcation to the point where the word “natural” does not indicate what it should mean anymore. Intentions are placed within the existence, placement, period, and even to the species. We are motivated by our little pleasure, but the effects on the environment are dramatic. Our desires affect natural selection intentionally and unintentionally as plants have evolved to satisfy human kind’s most basic yearnings. Yet, how much are we aware of our decisions?
