tree of life.

Sometimes I forget that the human species is just a little spec amongst the vast diversity of life. I could click through these clades all day and still only have an insignificant inkling of the variety of Earth's organisms.

third planet.


"Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself."
~ Leo Tolstoy

If we all did a little bit each day to help out the third planet, it would be a better world. So why don't you get off the computer and go eat some organic trailmix or something.

beauty grows in dirt.

I like trees. They start out simple but grow into intricate and majestic beings. At first glance, one might mistakely deem them inanimate objects. But trees are, in fact, very much alive. Yes, I like trees. No, wait. I love them.

I wonder if they can love me back...

bird flew by.




What is it about birds that enthralls some of us so much? Is it their songs? Their color? Their flight? For me, it's the flight. Whenever I see birds flying, I think to myself, "Why not me? I want to fly, too... why can't I fly?" And then the birds defecate on me. At least figuratively. But sometimes literally.

Maybe they're trying to tell me to go sing my own song. (Figuratively, of course. No one wants to hear me sing.) And maybe they're right.
