Everything is Human Being

I really enjoyed this piece... It evoked a strong connection within me because I love nature and enjoying its true wild qualities. Also, because I just saw Avatar in theaters on Monday evening, I found a lot of similar themes. Like how the Na'vi from the movie are easily compared to Native Americans. They live in very similar ways and give much worship to their surroundings by living very gently. I liked how the author used the term Wasichu to talk about any person who takes from the land and steals its gifts. Nature truely does talk back and we should all respect it and avoid encroaching and destroying everything she gives us.
