Humans love to interact with nature. We appreciate plants and animals. We stare at the sea in awe. We watch the wind with wonder. Yet we are strangely shy of many aspects of ourselves that are basic and biological, and which remind us of our position as natural creatures. Perhaps this is one reason why we sometimes end up in such unnaturally unhappy states. Events increase your chance of gaining a greater sense of belonging to (and being a part of) a wider world. Don't be ashamed of all your instincts.
