Connections from Remote Places

Do you realize how many connections to remote places you have collected over the years?

David Bodanis says, "We inhale many hundreds of particles in each breath we take.  Salt crystals from ocean whitecaps, dust scraped off distant mountains, micro bits of cooled-magma blown from volcanoes and charred micro-fragments from tropical forest fires."

Let your imagination go wilding as you renew connections with faraway sources of nourishment.  Revivify your intimacy with departed influences and those that continue to define you.

Tantalize in details from far places in time to create a story, essay or poem.
