SILENT DANCING: Some Thoughts in Honour of Aldous Huxley

	Books can be burned easily
	but great ideas don't quickly fade

	Paintings can be banned from exhibition
	but great art still manifests in other ways

	Music can be blocked from performance
	but deep harmonies are never displaced

	Places of worship are easy to demolish
	but it is harder to destroy human faith

	Art survives funeral pyres
	Beauty transcends all flame

	We are proof of the power of magic –
	and with or without us

	The dance of life
	continues in countless ways

	
Jack:     At times I think humans are too arrogant about their place in the universe.

Juanita:  We are certainly not the end of evolution.

Shu:      Is there ever any end? Perhaps our notions of time, space, & causality need 
          re-examination.
