I feel like you see the world with similar eyes to me in some ways. The fact you've made a post like this expressing such an intrigue in rocks in a way that makes them so much more fascinating than the every day person tends to consider. Whenever I get the chance to see a cliff edge or a coastline slowly sinking into the sea, my mind instantly zooms out of time and imagines the sheer force of motion that pushed them upwards, taking note of the grain direction, realising how those layers were once horizontal deposits of life, now somehow at a 45 degree angle.

I brought a rock home weeks in advance from up a mountain thinking it was pretty cool and a good birthday gift for a friend. Turns out it wasn't, so I had to act like it was a joke gift haha... Damn took me ages to find just the right rock.

But yeah, it's nice to go out and appreciate surroundings for what they really are, something I can't wait to be able to do again one day after so many years!

(I meant to comment days ago before pay-out... but oh well!)
