Nature

Not to be confused with nurture, nature is the brute force that traps all conscious sentient beings into a cage of reflexive action or reaction.

Actually, nature has, as most know, a soft nurturing side, and therefore, one must not assume the actions and reactions are of a negative or harmful nature in and of themselves.
