What Can We Learn From a Tree?

Maddie Brady shares a thought on why appreciating nature is important to learn from a young age, and what we can learn from nature.

I think simple values like appreciating nature are lost in today’s hustle and bustle generation. I hope that one day when I have kids I will be able to teach them that it’s not all about what new gadget you have, it’s about remembering your roots and cherishing your family. Being at Fenner helps ground me some and helps me remember what’s really important.

I found this image online and I really liked it. Fenner is the perfect place for reflection because it’s so peaceful and secluded.
