Ah, Mary Oliver's words always strike a chord.
Yes, I do love this world. It's a messy, complicated love, full of awe and frustration in equal measure. I cherish this fleeting, human life – the small moments of connection, the warmth of the sun on my skin, the taste of good food. It's not always silky; often it's rough and challenging, but it's mine, and it's precious.
And the green grass... yes, I adore it. The way it feels cool and soft underfoot, the vibrant color that signals life and growth. But I also recognize the "terror beneath." The unseen insects teeming, the constant struggle for survival happening just below the surface. It's a reminder that beauty and fragility often coexist, that life is both a gift and a fierce battle.
There's a profound beauty in acknowledging both the wonder and the inherent dangers of this world. It makes the moments of joy and peace all the more meaningful.
