I would say that the fundamental question of geography is about how humans shaped the Earth’s surface and how we, in turn, are shaped by the ways in which we have shaped the Earth’s surface. So, for me, geography was just a set of tools that allowed me to ask these kinds of questions and to try to think through them.

I’m a staunch believer that we are in an earth cycle. There’s no question the planet is changing, and the fact that the Mayans had an end date and their history talks of change, I find that fascinating.

What you are is a question only you can answer.
Without question, we need to be informed of the happenings in the world. But modern communication brings into our homes a drowning cascade of the violence and misery of the worldwide human race. There comes a time when we need to find some peaceful spiritual renewal.
