Dogs and Monkeys

October 05, 2021 by Trevor Allen

I grew up around dogs, and so never really questioned our domestication of other animals. When you zoom out to somewhere else in our solar system, it is kind of a wild concept. 

Because at the end of the day, we are upright monkeys with oddly shaped heads. We see ourselves as normal, but taken from this far off vantage point, we are nothing short of extraordinary. 

Which is why we must consider the big picture, the one hundred million mile view. Such perspective unlocks new potential, collaboration, and wonder; to see is to be.
