REFLECTION QUESTION
Nature Tend a Garden

Have you ever had a significant experience in nature that altered your perspective or focus? If so, please describe it.

Bigi Luginbuhl 10/28/2020 12:03 PM

Definitely. Not sure which experience to share. The view from a mountain I chose to climb in the spur of the moment. It was difficult and in the middle I almost turned around but chose instead to continue forward. I was rewarded with the most breathtaking view of the cascades spread out in front of me. It was amazing.

I wish that I had gotten more involved earlier in this challenge but will refer to it and continue to do some of the things after it ends. Life sometimes gets so busy that I forget to take the time to do things like this that would only make it better. I am glad this platform exists.

REFLECTION QUESTION
Action Track: Healing and Renewal Core Values

What are your top 3-5 core values? How did you narrow it down to those as being your core values?

Bigi Luginbuhl 10/27/2020 12:40 PM

My health, Love, gratitude and appreciation, Kindness and compassion and Connection. Narrowing it down was quite difficult but I chose the things that I see myself being influenced by when making decisions. I also chose connection because it is something I need to focus more on developing and nurturing.

REFLECTION QUESTION
Nature Enjoy the Sunrise/Sunset

Father Thomas Berry says, "... our primary purpose is celebration. Celebration of the dawn and the sunset and the different seasons of the year is a religious ritual, a way in which humans can establish their integral relationship with the universe, with the planet Earth." What is your response to Berry's assertion?

Bigi Luginbuhl 10/27/2020 8:15 AM

I completely agree. I celebrate the changing of seasons and sunrise and sunset. Nature is my religion and I believe it does align me more with nature and to appreciate all that it teaches us.
