So far, our consideration of nature and the environment has led us to conclude that we do not have a stable, fixed definition of nature, even though we readily and inescapably experience it all the time. In fact, as we have seen in our readings, nature can be experienced in many ways, and can be many things, none of which exhaust the possibilities. Now let us look within--we each have in ourselves human nature. Is this nature possible to define? If we make the analogy, we are led to believe that the thing we each have within ourselves, human nature, is just as complex, multifarious and elusive as the nature around us, even though we readily and inescapably experience that nature all the time too. If so, then why do we accept the superficial, harmful, and often degrading categories, stereotypes etc. that society puts us into? Human nature is not to be defined, it is to be discovered, and its possibilities also are limitless.
