Temporary is forever.
A place can tell us who we are and what we should do.
So can a person.

To come and go from each- people- places- can change who we are. It is that simple.
Our identities are intertwined with stability and mobility.
Our backyards are enormous, or non-existent.
The sky unabashedly occupies the space over each of our heads.
Many of our fears are related to our sense of self.
Concepts of conspiracy are really a convenient way to package larger social problems.
Greed and apathy come from a lack of understanding our connection to people and place
There is no set way to achieve greatness or goodness.
There are many ways not to screw up.
