In my understanding, a biotope is a place where nature is left to its own devices as much as possible. This means that humans intervene as little or not at all as possible. This creates habitats for animals that might not live in an environment cultivated by humans. It has algae and moss that would otherwise be removed by humans because it looks unkempt. Unkempt - exactly! Unkempt in this context means life. I think in our western world we tend to have it orderly, organised, well-kept. But that doesn't always leave room for the spontaneous, the unpredictable. The writer of the letter to the Hebrews admonishes them: Do not forget to practise hospitality! For without knowing it, some have received angels in this way. With such a perspective, would it not be worthwhile to live a more unkempt, uncontrolled, spontaneous lifestyle? I encourage you to do this today - let's see what you experience
I wish you an extraordinary day!
