See the Grand Canyon from a hang glider
Stop seeing displaced life
Feel weightlessness
Stop feeling the tug of extinction
Taste with all new taste buds
Stop tasting bitterness
Smell the inside of J&J Baby Powder packaging plant
Stop smelling the outside of industry
Hear a complete translation of the songs of the Humpback whale played simultaneouly with the actual song in underwater surround sound
Stop hearing that sound ecological practices can not be achieved in our lifetime
Sense the acceptance of human precognition as a normal state and not paranormal to a degree that allows pre-existence to be a reality and a precursor for a state of post-existence
Stop sensing the fatalism of contemporary youth
Disspell the idea that change is the only constant
Prove that the shortest distance between two points is not a straight line.
Publish a well received work of non-ficton and a contoversial work of fiction
Erase my vanity
Eat a super premium quality of double chocolate fudge brownie ice cream until I either pass out or beg to be hospitalized
