We all have them! Bodies equipped with sensory systems, designed to make the most of our time on earth. When everything is working well, it's easy to forget just how marvelous the experience of living really is.
But, when we remember that our working ears allow us to hear the wind in the leaves, we begin to really listen. When our noses delight in the heady scent of grapes ripening, a smile spreads across our face. When our skin's receptor's feel the sun's caress and we eat the last tree ripened peach in the back yard, we laugh, caught by the wonder of being alive.
These super bodies conspire to remind us that life's purpose, at least in part, is to relish the daily act of living!
Our celebrated senses are the tools of every creative scientist!
And will be essential to this years research question, "How might creative expression amplify our love of the natural world?"
