A sense
of absolute value in what is happening; a sense of being in relation to
other people and to things; a sense of endless possibilities of fruitfulness;
and above all, the habit of natural contemplation, the letting the
mind rest upon, draw
nourishment
from, the images of nature perceived as an organic whole - these things
constitute, to my mind, a paradise, as far as such a condition is possible
after the Fall of Man.
