While reading Full Metal Jacket Diary (by Matthew Modine), I felt on a description that made me thought about our class. About movements and images connected together in the notion of "all".
It goes like this: I take one of the cigars and put it away in the box that it came in. I take another and smoke it. The Indians says that when you smoke, you partake of three elements: the earth, fire, and wind. Tobacco grows in the earth and is therefore born of the mother and is her child. Fire is used to burn the tobacco. Air is used to bring the fire into our lungs. The smoke we exhale rises up and disappears into the sky, home to the celestial beings. Everything is connected.
