centering the periphery

the struggle to ‘get to the in crowd’ is never worth it. yes i know never is a very unambiguous word but that is what i intend. the ‘top of the mountain’ can kill you and anyway the real view in my opinion is from valley below looking up. i decided long ago that the best experience is found in the totality of crowded grasses and not the precipice where clouds and rock hide so much of the valley. the revelation in the sweeping wind reveals the shimmer of it all.
