We are but pilgrims in this world, so a well known phrase goes. Our lives might be fleeting but within that cosmological nano-second we are left to our own devices to make sense of it all.  In our attempt to navigate this existential labyrinth we look to the left and we look to the right. We look up above and we look down below. We try to comprehend any morsel of meaning and grasp any value or worth.

In the end, we have to surrender to the fact that the scope of our enlightenment will be defined by the limits of our perception.
