I believe in small little things that factor into the major overlying thing I believe in. The first time that I started to notice these things was in my second year of college. Being from the country, and living in the city was a huge change for me. One thing that I always enjoyed about the country in the summer was the fireflies. When I started going to school in Indianapolis I realized that much to my distress fireflies lived here too. When you are little you don't think about other places, and what that world consists of. You just know how yours is, and think that its special. From the first day of seeing the fireflies in the city I knew that I believed from that moment on that fireflies should only live in the country. I also knew that since that would never happen, that I believe the ones who are in the country are more content.
Your comment reminds me of the bald eagles that nest in Chicago. When I worked in downtown Chicago, in the Prudential building, I would see hawks all the time. Here is a news article from January about several eagles that have been spotted in the city. http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2011/01/04/10-bald-eagles-spotted-in-elgin/
