nature is wonderful

Amma taught me that nature whispers ancient truths. She'd recite Kannadasan's verses while tending our garden, how the poet saw divinity in every leaf and creature. "Society rewards the rush," she'd say, "but nature rewards patience." One morning, I found a butterfly struggling from its chrysalis. I wanted to help, but Amma stopped me. "Let it strengthen itself. That's how life works." Weeks later, that butterfly returned, dancing through our blooms. My heart soared. Now I understand: the greatest reward isn't applause, but witnessing growth. This garden connects us to something timeless, something our ancestors knew deeply. We're never truly alone.
