Half shower thought, half stoner thought. It may seem obvious, but I was dwelling on the point for a while, deeper and deeper.

We exist in a symbiotic relationship with nature, a sort of balanced trade of breaths. Trees release oxygen which we breathe in to survive, and in return, we release carbon dioxide that fuels their photosynthesis. In this manner, we are locked in a reciprocal, almost parasitic yet mutually beneficial relationship with nature.

We are entwined in an unending dance with the natural world, each sustaining the one other.

      Of course, this is the concept of an ecosystem at its most basic level.

      The point I’m trying to illustrate here goes beyond just defining an ecosystem. Delving deeper into the intricate and direct relationship between trees and humans specifically, a reciprocal cycle that often goes unnoticed. Pondering the philosophical implications of such mutual dependencies and what it means for our understanding of our place within nature.

      But I appreciate your input ✌️💛
