The gravity of the situation.

Lately I've been taking a harder look at physics.  Not that I can understand this subject that well.  But it has plenty to teach us.

Gravity is one area.  That, plus light, magnetism, electricity, time, space, matter, etc.  A big field of lifelong study.  Too big for most people, definitely including working artists.  I can only go so far, and then I'm bewildered.

What can it all mean?  How can I apply these lofty concepts to my small world?  

For instance, it seems like time, gravity, distance, and matter come into being nearly simultaneously.  "Before" the so-called Big Bang everything is unbelievably dense, meaning no time or space exists.  Only pure identity.  

Does that make any sense?  To me it does.  In a way.  It's like when two lovers are fully together.  Time and separation barely appear.  They don't have to speak.  They are even beyond unity.  They aren't pulling at each other.  Gravity isn't necessary. They simply are.  

Also, I've decided to retire the daily blog.  Starting soon it will be the weekly blog.  Not as potentially dull.
