Conflict #1:
You experienced winter,
while expecting spring.
Conflict #2:
You experienced darkness,
while waiting for light.
Conflict #3:
You experienced the blizzard of ice,
while expecting the flowers to blossom.
Why does nature generate such conflicts?
Possible answers:
To teach us something?
To warn us about something?
To punish us?
NO!
Nature does not care for you!
Should it?
NO!
It minds its own business
Who are you to expect nature to be concerned with you?
You are an egotist.
Nature is not.
You are an outsider,
Nature is not.
Yesterday a Tsunami hit Japan.
Killing how many people, God knows.
Was it the revenge of nature on people?
Did it try to warn people about something?
Did it want to punish people?
No!
It minded its own business, following its own track
So, do not build your house by the sea-side,
By the skirts of a volcano.
On a fault
If you do,
Your ego will regret it.
Yes?
Who am I to expect nature to be concerned with me?

Everything is perishing except His face.
