The Earth is Our Home

By Samantha Place, TCU Senior Nursing Student

When I think back at some of my fondest memories in my short 22 years of life, many of them, are among nature. Skiing in the California Sierra Nevadas with my long-time family friends, horse-back riding on the beach in Costa Rica on a family vacation, spending time on the lake in Arizona with my cousins, hiking in northern Minnesota with summer-camp friends...the list goes on. All of these memories are not possible without the beauty that is nature. The Earth is our home, and a home deserves to be shared. I'm filled with gratitude that I've been fortunate to share many stunning places with people who I love and cherish.
