Often, swamps do not invoke pleasant thoughts, even by people who claim to be lovers of nature. There is a muddled, dirty aspect of such land, which is hard to overcome. Personally, I enjoy the quiet, murky waters and the innumerable hints of movement by insects, plants and animals that mostly elude discovery. It is a beautiful contradiction: a rich tapestry of life cloaked by a seemingly dead, gray veil. One can draw from the swamp a significant conclusion for the human experience: when we bother to look deeper upon a fellow being, we stand to behold lovely blessings.
