It's a Hard Time to Be Human
“What if you felt the invisibletug between you and everything?...It’s a hard time to be human. We know too muchand too little. Does the breeze need us?The cliffs? The gulls?If you’ve managed to do one good thing,the ocean doesn’t care.But when Newton’s apple fell toward the earth,the earth, ever so slightly, felltoward the apple as well.”−Ellen Bass
