It is almost banal to say so yet it needs to be stressed continually: all is creation, all is change, all is flux, all is metamorphosis."-Henry Miller
How odd it is that the only two occurrences in life that are guaranteed, change and death, are the ones we dread the most. It’s been my experience that nature holds the most demonstrative examples of how and why we should see change and death as positive rather than negative progressions. While the metaphor “pushing daisies” seems merely cliche, it’s actually quite a profound saying when read in light of how much we have always relied on nature to represent that which seems incomprehensible. My two pieces are meditations on the power of nature as a guide through the frightening but inescapable reality of how impermanent life is.
