Challenging the Sea
Produced by Helen Posno
Wrecking on shores of past impossibility, the ship of the present encounters the waves of future possibility. Ambitious Science envelops Suspicious Doubt to further its questioning into the workings of nature. Anguished Remorse shares and relieves the despairing Mystery of human illness. Courageous Passion comforts the rages of Rancor with the sensitivity of comprehension. Humankind transcends the emotional debris of its isolating limitations to grow into the compassionate evolving universe.
