Coming soon...Life Trips
What is it like to be a spider threading a web or an eagle in flight? What is it like being a whale in depths or a pollen grain wafting above the earth? What is it like to be in love if you're a 200,000 year old human ancestor? Do you know love? Do you understand what it is? What is it like to be a drop of water recycling for a million years or a pebble burnished mercilessly by the tides? What is it like to be Homo erectus struggling to untangle the mystery of the moon? Is the moon far? If I climb that mountain can I touch it with my hands? What are these stars that dazzle me at night - are they fires from distant worlds? Where did she go, will I ever see her again? What is life? What is this? What is that? What is it all for?
