This episode features a new guest writer—Sandra
from Switzerland. She offers three selections taken from a collection of her work
tentatively entitled A Hiker’s Notebook.
From an early age, PK has learned the inducements of nature to spiritual
understanding, as he was raised a preacher’s kid in north central Maine. His
parents were spiritual naturalists at heart but probably didn’t know it.  They took a lot of family trips on the back
roads to explore the northern woods and waters of The Pine Tree State. PK
dreamed of living like a hermit there in those woods with a good water source
nearby. He read all the Field & Stream mags he could get his hands on. His
folks bought him a subscription to Outdoor Life. The world of nature fascinated
the preacher’s kid as a child and drew him to itself. For there, he began to
believe that maybe God could be found in nature. At that stage of life, God
lost the silvery haired image and pulsed invisible in the carbon life forms on
Earth. Some folks have even called it their Ground of Being. In this reading of
Sandra’s work the natural world speaks for itself. So be it.
