As breathing involves a continual oscillation between exhaling and inhaling, offering ourselves to the world at one moment and drawing the world into ourselves at the next, so sensory perception entails a like reciprocity, exploring the moss with our fingers while feeling the moss touching us back, at one moment gazing the mountains and at the next feeling ourselves seen, or sensed, from that distance Ã¢â'¬Â¦
~ David Abram

call this interval "interglacial" rather than "post-glacial" because for the past million years, Earth has oscillated between glacial cold and interglacial warmth on a 100,000-year timescale dictated by metronomic variations in Earth's orbit around the sun.
