This page is about trying to figure out where we came from and how that affects the way we are. Richard Niebuhr has pointed out that our thinking is shaped by our early experiences. Most of us have those idyllic moments, months or years in our life that we wish could be frozen in time; that moment when we were without a care for the larger world, that moment before we tasted the forbidden fruit and thus were ushered out of paradise. Forced out of our comfort zone we find that the gate is locked and we can’t get back in. So here we are on the surface of the earth which is spinning us at 1,040 MPH and we can’t get off, we can’t go back and we can’t get those who have come on board after we did to understand what we have experienced and why it was important to us. They are coping with their own spinning world.
