violent seismic upheaval
I can reflect more on the beauty of what I saw today. While you stand upon the bedrock of the earth, frozen as it is, you can be propelled back to the beginnings of the world all those billions of years ago. You are standing in the fires of creation with a butterfly as your guide.

the butterlies are guiding us lately, for sure.

You can see it in this picture but there were other stones further along (after my battery shit out on me) which were very apparently molten at some point in the previous, err. . . 30 billion years, or so.

that is a very beautiful quote! i've had the same impression many times and am often humbled by nature, seeing things in time expanses of billions of years, but have never been able to put it so eloquently.
