This propensity

I will make the case 
that to explore and affiliate with life 
is a deep and complicated process in mental development. 
To an extent still undervalued in philosophy and religion, 
our existence depends on this propensity, 
our spirit is woven from it, 
hope rises on its currents.  
                 Edward O. Wilson, Biophilia
