Description ...and no one was scared or crying or lamenting their fate.  They all knew, as I do now, that this is why we live

Dedicated to my uncle Jack.  I'll miss you.

Thank you Karla

I've actually got a great editing tool for removing those powerlines, but I left them in on purpose.  I guess I feel that in this instance, the shot needed to be as unedited as life is.

Thank you and No, you weren't insensitive.  I wrestled mightily on whether to leave them In or not and leaving them in finally won.

/thank you Tris   I guess the words aren't meant to be understood clearly--they're more of an abstract thought about the fate we all share about living and dying and the moments in between those times.
