Expansive Universe
Hello to those of you that I do not yet know. I'm a friend of Wayne's from way back and my name is Sarah Gonzales (for the interim). All my musings will post under Mexico left.
About a week ago I heard an brief commentary on npr of recent findings that the universe is just expanding. Instead of the previously conceived idea of expansion following contraction following potentially cyclical Big Bangs...it is just expanding ad infinitum.
In my current work I'm investigating concepts of humanity in relation to extant expanse and offer this to the blog (did I use that term correctly?)
A meditation on the instructional infinity of flatland in an ever expanding universe
Flatland already knows who you are
accepting your every step
loud
in the present.
Come to terms with
how tall & small you are
how broad & narrow you are
how smart & ignorant you are
your fortitude, naivete, dignity, innocence.
When you standstill on flatland,
do you have faith that you can love
and be loved?
So do what you need to do.
