Description: "How To Fall: Gravity guides our velocity into the unknown. In life, things can fall into place, fall in or out of line, or through the cracks; so many ways to fall. Falling in love is a plunge of infinite permutations, and varying weights. This sublime catapult can be exhilarating yet daunting when a new center of the universe emerges. Meanwhile, falling is a lapse of control, of abandon, and falling from grace can unleash havoc." -- Vampandtramp.com (viewed 7/27/2017)

"All There Is: This book is about trust, finding your own center of gravi­ty and moving your own weight. Humans are forces of na­ture finding their own way amidst forces of nature. Climb­ing is a negotiation of gravity while tethered to another. Sometimes letting go is the way to progress and rise." -- Vampandtramp.com (viewed 7/27/2017)

"A Star Close Enough: In orbits, two mutually attracted bodies revolve around a joint center of mass, located in the space between them. In relationship, two bodies move closer together and farther apart as they mediate their distance, following the shape of their orbital path. Meanwhile, our earth is gravitationally bound in the most propitious orbit around our sun, making us just the right distance to receive its life-giving energy." -- Vampandtramp.com (viewed 7/27/2017)
