Duration: P00H03M25S
Description: What were we when we first began? How does that compare to us now? Do we know more or less? Do we perceive as much as we did then? How can looking back to the beginning help with our outlook of the world around us and the moments ahead?

What were we when we first began? How does that compare to us now? Do we know more or less? Do we perceive as much as we did then? How can looking back to the beginning help with our outlook of the world around us and the moments ahead?

lyrics

What were we when we first began
What were we when we were just grains of sand
That were spinning through a cosmic starry sky
Where many will try and tell you, but none can show you why
They feel the pressure from the radiating day
Approaching faster now, to bleach our thoughts away
If the light that doth shine, should proveth to be black
I'd give myself away, and never get it back
