The Great Silver lies before me as it has lain upon the earth
from the beginning of time. I find being
near her a great solace and cause for meaningful contemplation. When we place ourselves in relationship with
the greats of the earth, her rivers, mountains, rifts, canyons and waterfalls
we bind ourselves to her seeming eternity and our own desire for that. A great longing for our continuation, our "valueness"
to be recognized and even honored. To be
alive is the most profound achievement of a human (but you have to choose to be
made alive). This relationship with
earth caused one man to say, “what is man that Thou are mindful of him?” It is Who answers back, when we choose to be
made alive, that gives us the value we crave.
However, most humans today, never finding themselves anywhere near a
relationship with earth, view your Great Find as a minor cause celebre.
