we are all restrained and condemned by the weight of gravity.however,Sisyphus pushing the weight of his boulder endlessly up the mountain does not catch me up as much as Vulcan's tireless labor at the bottom of the smoking crater,hammering raw material.the constructive process, the daily concerntration and effort appeal to me more than the light fantastic,more than the quest for the ethereal. everything we choose in life for its lightness soon reveals its unbearable weight.
