Life is fragile: it thrives only in a narrow range of temperatures between freezing and boiling. How lucky that our planet is just the right distance from the sun: a little farther, and the death of the perpetual Antarctic winter – or worse – would prevail; a little closer, and the surface would truly fry anything that touched it. Leonard Susskind
Life is certainly fragile, and the fluctuations of temperature are sometimes hard to fathom…varying to extreme degrees in a matter of weeks. I am grateful that the earth is positioned in just the right spot for us…but am not ready for winter yet!!! I guess that complaining won’t help, and I might as well just embrace it…with a nice warm cup of coffee, a good book, tucked up with the animals under the duvet in front of the fireplace. I am grateful that we have a nice warm house and central heating that we can afford to run.
