The stinging nettle is a plant that can be found all over the world. It has long, green leaves and small, white flowers. The plant gets its name from the fact that it has tiny, sharp hairs on its leaves and stems that can sting humans and animals. 😈
The stinging nettle is sometimes used as medicine. It can be made into a tea or taken as a supplement. Some people believe that the plant can help with conditions such as hair loss, balancing inflammation, enlarged prostate, blocking histamine, lowering blood pressure, and blood sugar balancing.
It’s amazing how this plant has a paradoxical nature. For some, it’s a reason for pain and for others, a cure.

The leaves are starting to change color and fall off the trees, but that doesn’t mean that the green has to go away completely. There’s still plenty of green to be found in nature, and it’s absolutely beautiful.

The vast shade of the tree under the morning autumn sun is so peaceful and calming.

Spider webs are classic examples of anti-fragile systems. they are resilient, robust and easily repairable.
In contrast, fragile systems are those which are not well-equipped to deal with sudden changes and disruptions. They are often complex, tightly coupled and have little redundancy. Examples of fragile systems include the financial system, the power grid and the global food system.
The concept of anti-fragility has been popularised by Nassim Nicholas Taleb in his book Antifragile:
Things That Gain from Disorder. Taleb argues that we should design systems that are not just resistant to shocks, but that actually benefit from them. This is because shocks can be a source of learning and growth.
In a world that is becoming increasingly uncertain and unpredictable, the ability to thrive in the face of change is becoming increasingly important. Anti-fragile systems are those that are best equipped to deal with sudden changes and disruptions.
