Nature Does Not Follow a Linear Pattern

Have you tried observing the natural world? Whether you live in a rural or urban environment, there will always be a small patch of nature nearby.

Curves are present in the simplest, most normal, non-extravagant environments, as I learned when we went on a walk one afternoon and attempted to capture the smallest things around us.

Nature does not demonstrate anything linear. There are a few curves here and there. Pollination is the process by which a flower's petals transform from a bud into a beautiful flower, spreading their colored parts into splendor. Depending on whether the flower is female or male, it may produce fruit.

The surrounding vegetation is not linear. From the plant's roots to its leaves and fruit, which may not even be a fruit, it may provide sustenance to other organisms. For us, it is a subject for photography; we may not know its function or application, but nature's equilibrium has a good idea of what it can contribute to the ecosystem.

There are plants that we dislike because their thorns bring us pain and discomfort. Their thorns appear little, yet they can inflict tremendous and terrible discomfort.

I usually say that nature has a great deal to teach us, and this instance is no exception. Some people in our lives may be similar to this plant, which has spikes and thorns. Although these types of people may cause us pain, we must not focus on the harm they may cause and instead be extra cautious around them. With extra attention and careful loving care, the thorns will soon fall off, leaving a useful shrub with smooth branches.

On the other hand, a surprise awaited us when we traveled to the rice fields. Initially, there was only one dog, a white one. When I see a dog, I constantly think of my niece, who desperately wants a puppy but cannot have one since she has asthma.

Then my brother began saying "che, che" like he always does when he sees a dog close.

As we drew closer, more and more white dogs appeared in our path! There was only one, then there were two, and then there were three! These dogs were identical in some way!

Oh, they eventually became four! And they came very close to us, sniffing us; perhaps they knew we posed no threat because we were only filming them, so they posed for the camera. Despite the fact that the front one's stances were blurred owing to the camera's aperture setting, they seem really lovely!

We arrived in the ricefield region, where there is irrigation and water pours into the rice fields. The plants are currently thriving and producing grains, but they are not yet mature. The rainy season had allowed for their healthy growth. This is a vast region of rice fields.

Our family is acquainted with the proprietors, who had erected some lines and scarecrows to prevent birds from devouring the rice grains and preventing them from being harvested in sufficient quantities.

Still young and green, these plants and grains will turn yellow! Certainly, they are pleasing to the eyes of the farmers.

Now, nature has once again demonstrated the consistent curve that we observe in nature. The weight of the grains causes the stalk to curve; when the grain is ripe, the stalk may break, and during harvesting, the grain will be separated from its stalk and removed by machinery.

But before the harvest, before everything else goes brown and yellow, the farmers would first pray that there would be no storms. If the town is impacted by a storm, the rice fields may be destroyed and the stalks may bend and break, causing the grains to drown in the water; fortunately, this year there will be a plentiful harvest.

As a result of the rainy season, tropical plants produce an abundance of fruit and prepare for the forthcoming summer, which may occur within the following several months. But at this time of year, the trees also appear quite robust!

Consider these coconut trees, which are loaded with extremely nutritious and versatile coconut fruits. For some, the young ones whose flesh can be scraped out and used in desserts and salads can be selected.

The dried ones that have already reached maturity can be utilized to manufacture coconut milk, while others harvest them and sun-dry the flesh so that it can be processed into copras and virgin coconut oils.

I cannot list them all, but coconut trees are considered the "tree of life" since they are beneficial and useful from their roots to their leaves.

Here's a young one that fell from the tree; brother picked it up and played with it until he attempted to bite it, at which point we realized it has a sour-like but unidentifiable flavor, so we opted to discard it.

The view of the ricefields, the surrounding community, and the Guindulman hills. The hills also displayed their contours.

It is time to go home, the sun is losing its power and the blue hour has come. Our home is just on the opposite side of the road, requiring only a few steps of walking.
