It is great to have F(f)riends…

“It’s a poor sort of memory that only works backwards,’ says the White Queen to Alice.”  ~  Lewis Carroll, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland / Through the Looking-Glass

A friend, who is a Friend at the Minneapolis Friends Meeting, called me today and shared Carroll’s quote with me. What struck me about this quote is that it addresses an experience and the concept of time. I have read in several places that, according to quantum physics, time is not a linear analog; instead, it is one moment stacked on top of another, and we experience time all at once. Therefore, our planning and setting of goals is a form of remembering a time in the future. I know, deep, huh? I am not a physicist, but these concepts inspire my work as an artist.
