NATURE
Clara Barton loved nature through her natural ability to nurture. As a very caring and giving women she looked to helping anyone and everyone around her. “ The conflict is one thing I've been waiting for. I'm well and strong and young..... young enough to go to the front. If I cannot be a soldier, I'll help the soldiers”.... (http://womenshistory.about.com/od/bartonclara/a/clara_barton_quotes.htm) This quote gives a better understanding on Miss Barton's views of the world around her. She cared for these men that fought so valiantly and brave. She wanted to do anything she could to help. Clara began her civil war service by providing supplies to the troops. Showing her natural ability to nurture, she personally cared for the troops who needed nursing services. Her views on nature were to save as many lives as possible. Without sustained life, we would not have any nature to appreciate. She made sure that would continue with her self sacrificing decision to help wounded soldiers on the battlefield. This can also be seen with her founding of the American Red Cross.

“Your belief that I am a Universalist is as correct as your greater belief that you are one yourself, a belief in which all who are privileged to possess it rejoice”....... (http://www.uuquincy.org/projects/stamps/14clarabarton.htm)
