Nature, Beauty, Gratitude

Louie Schwartzberg, an award-winning cinematographer, director and producer who captures magnificent images that divulge the exquisite beauty of nature, gratitude, and the universe. In Louie’s Ted talk show, he clearly delineates his ideas of preserving the nature, appreciating the nature, and be grateful of the nature. Louie want to inspire others to do the same thing as him, to see the beauty of nature, to appreciate then, and to thank the nature for what they did for us, instead of taking the nature for granted. These ideas and principles that Louie illustrated in the video can be applied to our own life.

Louie’s idea of preserving the nature is a very important issue of the human world. Humans thought that nature is just a tool for them to be more advance in technology, a resource that they can use to create things that would not exist without the help of nature. Louie stated that, “Beauty and seduction, I believe, is nature’s tool for survival, because we will protect what we fall in love with.” I agree with Louie, however I do not think that nature needs tools to survive nor protection from human, for that we are part of nature, and we need it to survive. Humans and nature have a symbiotic relationship. Plants need the carbon dioxides from humans in order for photosynthesis to occur, and humans need the oxygens that the plants produce to survive.

... nature is another principle that can be applied to my life. Everytime I eat, I think of, "Thank you food for existing, and thank you nature for creating them." I do this because without food, humans will not survive. Humans needs fuel which comes from food, and food came from nature. Therefore, the next time anyone eats, they should thank nature for creating these food.

In conclusion, humans have take so many things from the nature for granted that they do not preserve them, appreciate them, and be grateful of them. In the Ted talk show, Louie Schwartzberg want everyone to acknowledge the beauties of nature, and what it had done for us. Louie want to inspire everyone to start doing themself a favor and start preserving the nature for it is connect to everything that we need in life. To inspire them to be grateful of nature and start to appreciate their beauties.
