Try not to forget or delay my blog posting :P
I want to talk about myself and
nature! I have wrote about this for our fast write and my paper, but I want to
expand the topic little more.
I have naturally absorbed into the
Takers' culture from a baby to now and feel that nature is not really my close
friend. I was born and grew up in Seoul, the capital city of South Korea. Seoul
is considered as one of biggest and busiest cities in the world. There are so
many tall buildings and apartments that look like almost touching sky, so many
different people on the streets that are covered with neon signs, and so many
cars on roads and highways that connect everywhere in Korea. When I go to rural sides of Korea, there are
green mountains and blue beaches. I feel like I am in another country, and it
is interesting to see how the country with small lands has diverse geography
views. Even though I moved to several places, a small city, Bournemouth, with a
beautiful beach in England and a small or medium sized city, Anchorage, with
lots of mountains and wild weather in Alaska, I could not easily connect myself
to nature. I would like to imagine that if I am "a Leaver baby," which was one of our fast writes. If I am a baby who lives in a Leaver society, nature would be my playground and home. I will be going out every day to reach a deep deep part of forest, chasing butterflies and bothering other animals, climbing up to trees and eating various fruits, swimming and fishing in rivers, and having naps on bouncy grass. These activities seem so different from my childhood activities, which I played with my brother , watched cartoons on TV, and draw random pictures, and more fun that playing with nature is limitless. However, even though I know that nature could provide children good, exciting activities, would I let my children to run and play around nature wildly? I might say no... which is a sad answer. I would bring them to parks or playgrounds to let them play crazily but not forest ... may be just to walk with them together. This is because I know there would be some dangers and try to avoid injuries or deaths of my loved children...like other Taker mothers think and do. I am not sure what would be best solution for children, but for sure I want to them to see beautiful, amazing nature out in the world for them to experience and learn from nature something that could not find in books, internet, and TV. Is the idea of Leaver baby possible in the Taker society?
