Nature Universal Theme, Brian Beholds

The intrinsic qualities of a specific thing or person are its nature. In a bigger picture view, it is the physical world made up of all living and nonliving things. The forces and processes that dictate how these various things interact are the nature of the larger environment.

Key Concepts

Cycles are repeating or recurring series of events or actions, where the movement can be plotted as a circle.

Diversity is the fact that differences exist, that everything is not the same, and that this variety is a good thing.

Elements are the most basic and essential components of an entity or thing which make up the structure, nature and foundational rules for that thing.

An inclination is a leaning of the mind or will in a certain direction, an internal preference for one thing over another.

Natural refers to things coming from nature, and things being in their original unaltered state of being.

Permanence is the state of something lasting, continuing to exist in the same state without change indefinitely.

Process means to move forward. A process is a systemized way of doing something in a specific order.

Semantics is the study of language and words, and how its use changes over time.

Simplicity is the state of being single, unmixed with other components.

Anything synthetic is of artificial rather than natural origins. Other elements are combined together to create something new that did not exist before.
