Dear Erin; The oldest sciences and cultures defined the unierse as closed (a closed place of planets with life on them). This how we come today to look beyond what we experience with theories invovling "other" places. The theory of relativity is one of yhose theories-about things that cant be tested. What is phenomenal is how uch influece ancient ideas have on common life today-when there are other ways to see things, but these ways are to us not so much of of lives and we are always at the chasm, in an intellectual rut, beyween philosophies involving a logically unavoidable 'ever presentness or linear regression back to a seed - everything moving together from single start..i.e religous notions and sciences bound to witness with no bridge between the two possible. if the universe is considered open(from the start of our thinking) we would not be trying to capture it (enclose it) scientifically the way we do. That this scientific method has included with it only a simple notion of ethics 9i.e door do not do good in terms of human suffering only) makes nature possibly unethically acting fro a perspective of mankind. in this perspective there is always a struggle as to who reflects what man verses nature-and is always against the self. How much a (simple, theroetical) idea (i.e. of closed universe)-an artifact/manmade (idea) rather than natural affects the courses of today-the potential for survival, is phenomenal -today we have such amultifaceted and organized military like stragety to summount nature (ctually the best and only friend of mankind) that the more we do the more threats we will receive. To reorient ones self-to understand emotions, impulses even in psychiatrists office) one has almost to study complications of history and philosophy. These emotions tend to decrease with age but the misconceptions still remain-strange that mankind is viewed by anthropologogists as the mostjuvenile appearing physically of all the species-society is in a adolescent era it might not survive. Adolescents surive to maturity,we take for grantedsohow is a whole society threatened for a shorter than normal lifetime? -especially with such adcanced scholarly views and teah
We tend to move through life on paths that are laid out for us instead of ones we create, your words speak of emotions and they are often as the poem suggests part of the paths we follow.

Movement is life. :) And these words move in thought provoking lines - well done.
