"I slowed the car and silently fought to contain the horror that even animals feel before the disruption of the natural order. But was there a natural order? As I coaxed my lights to a fuller blaze I suddenly realized the absuridity of the question. Why would life tremble before the unexpected if it had not already anticipated the answer?"
