Such a beautiful way to start the day. I'm going to be saving this to watch again and again. Thank you!

Science may have made it all possible but love kept it going. :).

Maybe, at its best, science is a form of love?

Love, love, love this poem and others by Neil Gaiman and Amanda Palmer's readings are so wonderful, personal and intimate. Thank you!

Gaiman and Palmer are quite a pair, aren't they?!

I love photographing mushrooms while out hiking.

The diversity of size, shape and color is amazing.

I can’t always identify them, and of course,

I never eat them! (Except those carefully selected for pizza 😁)

I appreciate them for their beauty and potential purpose.

This poem has much to say!

“Observe everything…

Experiment

Measure

Identify…”

Yes. Pay attention. It is necessary for survival.

The video also brought a couple of different perspectives, as well.

Well done!
