This contradicts our desire to interact with the world as tabula rasa, a blank slate.
--related to this, phenomenologists have a subjective view, we're unable to have complete objectivity.
My question is this. How is our comfort related to the nature we're surrounded by?
(ex: Virginians who traveled out to the west coast for the first time may feel out of place for some reason. They start to realize that they are in a different landscape; they are around no trees, and they feel exposed.)
On another note. PHYSICS (or nature to Aristotle) is different than the NATURE of other philosophers means (in the Enlightenment at least) (Kant, etc.)
Habitat is a place of dwelling. Habitus is the way we dwell in a certain place; ritual way of perceiving reality, relational... With no habitus, habitat turns into scenery.
SO, all that I've written here must be seen within the eye of dwelling. When there is a being dwelling in place it changes it inherently and turns it into a new thing altogether.
I love that. There is something magical about being in a place. We will never know what a place is like when there is no dwelling, for it is not truly experienced, just seen with an eye at best. Its a special capability to experience and do these things.
