These clouds reminded me of a book I read last month, “A Land Remembered” by Patrick D Smith. The story follows a fictional family who helped settle and develop the state of Florida. Settling and developing can be diametrically opposed to one another. Seminole Indians and an early generation of the MacIvey family lived on the land, in harmony with the earth. They felt that to do harm to the land was the same as doing harm to God. Over a period of time, younger generations of the family felt that the ground should be owned, brokered, developed, and worked as a monetary investment. There-in was a conflict between the Seminoles and the imaginary family. That conflict also housed the moral of this wonderfully told story: The earth can care for itself. But after mankind runs foul of nature by ravishing the earth, reversing the process is like “trying to capture clouds in a bottle; and no one can do that”.
