Often I've felt like I wasn't from this planet, but then again, I feel more in tune with nature than many people. I think that a lot of indigenous people like Native Americans or Aboriginal Australians are much more at home than many people of European descent. They seem to be more inclined to live in concert with nature, not in spite of it. And then there are Buddhists who have a great reverence for all life.

My daughter and I have had similar conversations. It starts getting very metaphysical after awhile. A song from Sesame Street popped into my head, "One of these things is not like the other. One of these things doesn't belong".
