Nature, time, and patience are the three great physicians.
Chinese proverb
As the incidence of cancer continues to rise, researchers are pointing to our environment as a major cause. The truth is, we are one with our environment because the same life force that flows through our bodies flows through all other creatures; sustains the planets in their orbits; moves the oceans, rivers, and streams; and enriches the earth and all that grows therein.
Just think about it for a moment, and you will understand why we are not separate from the world around us. We are most clearly connected to the plant world in a very physical way through the exchange of oxygen, but it goes even deeper than that. The earth, animal life, and plant life codepend on each other for existence. We are all part of a vital life force, a creation of God, and in this perfect plan we are supplied with everything we need to sustain life.
