I believe it was Albert Einstein who said, "Look deep into Nature, and then you will understand everything better."
Remember he only said better, not completely. Today I heard a speaker comment that meaning in life comes from thinking, not from knowing. Her point was that we are too eager to know and go on to the next thing, bigger hard drives more memory etc. But we seem to have forgotten that thinking requires time and patience and work.

These images are all a work in progess. I hope they aid your thinking.
