“what is something that is always true?”
-Anaïs Nin, 1939
Patagonia, Chile by Vladimir Ryabkov
"We lost connection with the earth and sun and moon and stars, and then we constructed roofs and walls to meet with God. We traded in our deep intimate relationship with life for bricks and mortar. We have left our first love. We search for the divine in books and buildings, unaware that the universe calls our name through the rustling of the leaves, and woos our hearts in the quietude of a star-lit sky, and rolls infinity upon our feet through the tides of the sea."
Jim Palmer – Notes from (Over) the Edge
