Have you ever driven up into the mountains? First, there are the foothills, with the grand snow-capped vistas rising just beyond your vision. Then, as you climb higher, you can see sunlit valleys and crevices that remain darkened even as the sun reaches its height. You drive on and up through the undulating pathways that the mountain offers to you until you decide to stop and take a moment to drink in the beauty all around you. Your eyes are drawn ever upward to the peaks penetrating the heavens. Then you turn around and see another part of the mountain: the grand sea of the plains beyond the foothills. You realize the mountains are comprised of so many different fractals, so many different stories... and that if you hadn't taken the time to drive up, hadn't had the patience to explore, you would never have known that to encapsulate a mountain into one sentence was never going to be the truth of the experience. So it is with me.
