All History is Part of Us

A Chorus of Stones

It is said that the close study of stone will reveal traces of fires suffered thousands of years ago… I am beginning to believe that we know everything, that all history, including the history of each family, is part of us, such that, when we hear any secret revealed our lives are made suddenly clearer to us… Perhaps we are like stones; our own history and the history of the world is embedded in us, we hold a sorrow deep within and cannot weep until that history is sung.
