Looking Deeply

By Kaelyn Brown

Looking deeply at my hands, I thought about a video that I recently came across…

This man was contemplating when the exact moment was that he first remembered “living” or feeling conscious. The more he thought about it, the more he started to realize that it wasn’t an exact moment he started living–

His consciousness was always everywhere floating around…

Looking deeply at my hands, I thought about this because I ponder what it means to be alive…

How I am connected to every living thing all at once. I also thought about how closely I resemble trees and leaves.

There must be a reason why we so closely resemble pieces of nature… Why doesn’t society embrace this more?

Looking deeply at my hands, I think of how connected we are to this Earth.
