goldilocks.

welcome to the land of the living. it's a wonder that we're here at all. astronomers call this the "goldilocks principle" ... meaning that we inhabit a floating mass orbiting a star at just the right distance. not too hot...not too cold. just enough zam for hydrogen and oxygen and beating hearts. and in this time and place, our thump and thud fight the atmosphere we call home for survival. pressure and pain squeeze the daylights out of all our laws and intentions. the struggle is not just the anomaly of life, it's to actually be alive.
