In this photo a bird is perched upon a growing tree and its wings are human eyes. We have to see nature's beauty to understand everything it does. We are part of that beauty but so are all other animals that we need to appreciate.

In this we see and eye, a tree and a few celestial bodies. The eye is the key t seeing the beauty of the world and understanding how we work with nature. Without enjoying nature we cannot understand ourselves if we don't look at nature first.

Here we see someone meditating by the waterside with a heron close to them. And this relates to the principal that nature holds many virtues and once we appreciate nature then we can truly find ourselves and enjoy life. We must be comfortable with everything life throws our way to stay happy and healthy.

"A Day in the Life of a Minimalist"
-Matt D'Avella
While this isn't quite the minimalism that Thoreau experienced it's fair for the time we live. Surely there are people that do as Thoreau did but they haven't documented anything. Therefore this is used to show that cutting out anything that isn't necessary is exactly what is needed.

The Hand and Foot

BY JONES VERY

The hand and foot that stir not, they shall find

Sooner than all the rightful place to go;

Now in their motion free as roving wind,

Though first no snail more limited and slow;

I mark them full of labor all the day,

Each active motion made in perfect rest;

They cannot from their path mistaken stray,

Though ’tis not theirs, yet in it they are blest;

The bird has not their hidden track found out,

Nor cunning fox, though full of art he be;

It is the way unseen, the certain route,

Where ever bound, yet thou art ever free;

The path of Him, whose perfect law of love

Bids spheres and atoms in just order move.

Source: Poets of the English Language (Viking Press, 1950)

This poem is from the original transcendental movement and it describes nature and its beauty. It talks about teh hand and foot finding nature and its beauty

Let me take you down,
’cause we’re going to Strawberry fields.
Nothing is real.
And nothing to get hung about,
Strawberry fields forever.

Living is easy with eyes closed,
Misunderstanding all you see,
It’s getting hard to be someone but it all works out
It doesn’t matter much to me.

No one I think is in my tree
I mean it must be high or low
That is you can’t you know tune in but it’s all right
That is I think it’s not too bad

This is Strawberry Fields Forever by The Beatles and it shows how you can get lost in nature and make it your playground and nature should be cherished.
