The Great Affair
The great affair, the love affair with life,
is to live as variously as possible,
to groom one's curiosity like a high-spirited thoroughbred,
climb aboard, and gallop over the thick, sun-struck hills every day..

It began in mystery, and it will end in mystery,
but what a savage and beautiful country lies in between.

“ ” - Diane Ackerman, "found poetry" from A Natural History of the Senses
