...beautiful quote. i can't help myself...
i unlatched the shutters. the light was as intense as a love affair. i was blinded, delighted, not just because it was warm and wonderful, but because nature measures nothing. nobody needs this much sunlight. nobody needs droughts, volcanoes, monsoons, tornadoes either, but we get them, because our world is as extravagant as a world can be. we are the ones obsessed by measurement. the world just pours it out.
