Like a Fish Out of Water
In
the timeline of science, Coagulatio relates to the era when
life evolved on land, when fins became feet and the gravity
of the situation became more important than ever. When those
early amphibians’ skin and lungs hardened to the point
where they could live life entirely out of the water, they
faced a weird new world with air above and solid ground
beneath.
Not
all the new land dwellers stuck to the surface world.
Some preferred crawling around in the damp and dark recesses
of the earth, holing up in shadowy caves and living a
life very different from their counterparts above ground.
Hidden
from the sunshine and their neighbors’ prying eyes,
these communities of creatures grew stranger and stranger
as they adapted to life in the inner world. To a certain
extent, people behave this way today.
Questions
to Ask Yourself
Do you act a certain way around your friends but differently
in the company of strangers?
Have
you ever acted a little strange when you were in the dark
or when you thought no one was watching?
