In "Nature and the Environment" by Edward Abbey his relationship with the creatures are connected. He describes how he sees the snakes staring back at him and describes what they look like. Each season a different type of snake appears in his trailer. He is mostly interested in the gopher snake, especially there dance. He feels connected to them because he is interested in what they do and how they acted. "The gopher snake and I get along nicely." (Abbey, pg. 499.) None of Edward Abbey's experiment ever has happened to me only in my dreams. I think it would be beneficial to experience his world because people would be able to connect with the environment and know what to do with it and how to take care of it. Abbey is comfortable with the unknown because when he sees the snakes and the gopher snakes dancing he focusses on them and triers figuring out why they do that.

In "Our Universe May Be A Giant Hologram", by Brian Greene he argues that the universe you only have yourself and its parallel. He says like a black hole it has a a bunch of surface area just  like the parallel world. Knowing that our perception of things isn't reality dose not change anything about how we live our lives.

All stories have different views of the the world and in "Bewilderment" and "Nature and the Environment" they both talk about the world in nature, and " bewilderment" and "Our Universe May Be A Giant Hologram" both talk about oneself.
