“We have lost something else in our removal from nature, something more subtle and harder to measure: a groundedness, a feeling of connection to things larger than ourselves, a calm against the frenzied pace of our wired world, a source of creativity… a connection to something ancient and true in this fleeting world, an appreciation of beauty, and an awe of this strange and wonderful cosmos we find ourselves in. All of us feel that unnameable thing when we walk in the woods or sit by the ocean or stare at the heavens on a luminous night. Somehow, we are reconnecting with our ancestral selves and the long chain of lives stretching back to primeval oceans and unblemished land.”
The poetic physicist Alan Lightman reflects on our withdrawal from (the rest of nature) — a continuation of his soulful essay, penned nearly a decade ago, about science and our spiritual bond with nature.  
Couple with the poetic marine biologist Rachel Carson, writing generations earlier, on the ocean as a lens on our ancestral belonging.

An illustration from George Dawson Rowley‘s Ornithological miscellany v.2 (1877), captioned “Mother Carey and her chickens.” According to Wikipedia, Mother Carey is a personification of the dangers of the sea. Storm Petrels, birds thought by sailors to be harbingers of storms, are sometimes referred to as “Mother Carey’s chickens”.
