Pondering Life's Big Questions.

A Monk at Pike's Peak, Colorado.

It's easy to do at a place like this. You come for the drive and the views, but what keeps you at the the top for so long is the inner-monologue that ensues when you stand on the edge of a fourteen thousand foot tall pile of shale and sandstone. Everywhere you look there are people blankly staring off into the horizon. You can't help it, you wouldn't be human if it didn't happen. It's just part of the trip.
