Who’s joining the parts

The child lives life wondering "what it will grow up to be."

                        The adult lives life wondering "who the child was."

                                              The elderly live life wondering "what life after death will be like."

Yet in all these phases the three are joined together by the

"Transcendent observer,"

who is never ‘so bound up’ in time and circumstance.
