Those small changes contribute to the beauty of the whole, and just as we as people slowly evolve, our small changes go unnoticed until they become so big as to have an effect on the whole, and our viewpoint changes. Either of the mountain or us, or our friends and family. That's what I was thinking.

Having always had them, I didn't really know what I was missing until I moved here. I still miss them, but obviously not enough to leave Philly.

(Though the mountains down in Virginia aren't too far away.) I may have already mentioned that I wish we had mountains in Pennsylvania, but sadly we only have hills around these parts.
