Connection to Nature

I have never felt a true connection to nature.  I love nature and i really enjoy spending my time in it, but i have not ever felt any sort of spiritual connection towards it. I believe it is a gift from God and we should all enjoy every piece of it, but that is as far as i have come to a connection. In the time i spend outside i will take it into consideration to concentrate more about what it all means and how I can relate it back to my life.

To me i thought that Poe's writing was much more intriguing.  Nathaniel Hawthorne is a great author, but it was much harder to connect to his writing.  Poe writes from his soul so it is easier to paint the picture of his writings in your head as you read along.  While i was reading The Scarlet Letter i found it difficult to connect with the characters and truly see the message he was trying to get across.  Poe writes in a way that is more fun to read because you are able to make up so many different interpretations.
