Day 7 : Perfection



 

You help your brothers, sisters, parents and neighbours, even those whose name you barely remember.


You take what you need, nothing less, and nothing more.


You grow, accepting the time great things normally take.


You live surrounded by diversity, in peace and respect.


You create beauty, no hate, no envy


You know much about chemistry but little about waste


You are part of the music of silence, touching the wind with you delicate fingers


You hardly complain, sleepy in winter, brilliant in spring, radian in summer, elegant in fall


You breath like no one, giving more than you take


You live the long life, abundant in time and pacience


You are my home, perfect and cosy


My playground, meditation mat, my secret


I owe you the life and the freedom of your surroundings


My friend, my brother, my family...


You FOREST, far more perfect, than any human creation

Thinking in Systems

What is a system? I am glad you ask. The understanding of systems is critical to navigate in a complex world. But let's start by a definition. A system is an integrated assembly of matter and living beings that are interconnected and have one or multiple purposes, goals or functions.  Our climate is a system, our forest is a system and our economy is a system too. Although the isolated analysis of one part can be helpful for some type of questions, a realistic measure of the impact of a shock/new scenario/variable change, requires the understanding of the relationship between the components of the system. Please do not forget the purpose/s. It is particularly unnoticed the real goal that each systems follow. Oceans systems are critical for the live of corals and fish, for the moderation of the climate, for the generation of clouds and drinkable water... Forests are critical for the soil, for the availability of oxygen, local rain patterns, the wildlife that inhabit these spaces......
