FOR EACH OF US THERE IS A MOMENT OF DISCOVERY. WE TURN A PAGE. WE RAISE A HAND. AND JUST THEN, IN THE FLASH OF A SYNAPSE, WE LEARN THAT LIFE IS ELEMENTAL. AND THIS KNOWLEDGE CHANGES EVERYTHING. WE LOOK AROUND AND SEE THE GRANDNESS OF THE SCHEME. SODIUM BONDING WITH CHLORIDE. CARBON BONDING WITH OXYGEN. HYDROGEN BONDING WITH OXYGEN. WE SEE ALL THINGS CONNECTED. WE SEE LIFE UNFOLD. AND IN THE DAZZLING BRILLIANCE OF THIS KNOWLEDGE, WE MAY OVERLOOK THE ELEMENT NOT LISTED ON THE CHART. ITS IMPORTANCE SO OBVIOUS ITS PRESENCE IS SIMPLY UNDERSTOOD. THE MISSING ELEMENT IS THE HUMAN ELEMENT. AND WHEN WE ADD IT TO THE EQUATION, THE CHEMISTRY CHANGES. EVERY REACTION IS DIFFERENT. POTASSIUM LOOKS TO BOND WITH POTENTIAL. METALS BEHAVE WITH HARDENED RESOLVE. AND HYDROGEN AND OXYGEN FORM DESIRE. THE HUMAN ELEMENT IS THE ELEMENT OF CHANGE. IT GIVES US OUR FOOTING TO STAND FEARLESSLY AND FACE THE FUTURE. IT IS A WAY OF SEEING THAT GIVES US A WAY OF TOUCHING. ISSUES. AMBITIONS. LIVES.

So I stole this from the old Dow human element campaign. I've read it over and over and I find it just brilliant. Not much of a science buff, yet that's not what this is about, not at all. While the surrounding world is full of beauty and mystery, it is in the human being where real creativity, complexity, and originality can be found. Everyone is unique. Providing potential to do much.
To learn so much, to feel so much, to be so much.
