Metamorphosis

The fact that life moves almost imperceptibly like the revolving top of the Millenium hotel makes the times when life speeds up all the more dramatic. I used to feel like the people in my life and I were orbiting each other, gently floating closer and farther away, not quite randomly but with no particular destination in mind. Lately I've realized the motion was acutally metamorphosis. All of us, at once, in our own ways, becoming something other than we were.
