Adventures in Scale
Parker and Copper enjoy the zoo. They are amazed at the size and power of the elephant, and by the delicacy and grace of the ducks. They realize that in this world things exist at all scales, from vast continents to sub-atomic particles, and that their place, is somewhere in the middle. They understand that their role is to act, and to be acted upon in this thing we call life, so that their lives become intertwined with the lives of others in a meaningful way. They know, that as small as they are, their influence is vast. At least, that is what they said (they sound like raving lunatics to me).
