Wandering.........
Strolling on, it seems to me that the strangeness
and wonder of existence are emphasized here,
in the desert, by the comparative sparsity of
the flora and fauna: life not crowded upon life
as in other places but scattered abroad in
spareness and simplicity, with a generous gift
of space for each herb and bush and tree,
each stem of grass, so that the living organism
stands out bold and brave and vivid against the
lifeless sand and barren rock. The extreme
clarity of the desert light is equaled by
the extreme individuation of desert life forms.
Lover flowers best in openness and freedom.
-Edward Abbey
