Us human beings are not the center of the universe, but time and nature are the true masters of the universe.
We humans were yet to exist in this world while the mountain existed, 100 years will pass and the mountain will still stand but we humans will cease to exist.
From flowers and plants, we could learn the wisdom and processes of the natural world. For trees to heal and to be reborn, it must be cut down. Alike humans, we will hurt but when we heal, we will only get better.
