#motionless

[acknowledgetheabsurd]

Night had fallen now, the rain had stopped. The pale black sky still seemed liquid. In its dark, transparent water, low on the horizon, stars were beginning to flare. They flickered out almost at once, falling one by one into the river, as if the sky were spilling its last lights, drop by drop. The thick air smelled of water and smoke. And they could hear close by the murmur of the vast, motionless forest.

You should be about to reach out and grab a handful of motionless light just as you can scoop up a handful of newly fallen snow.

"After so many years fleeing from fear, running crazily, uselessly, she was finally coming to a halt. At the same time she seemed to be recovering her roots, and the sap rose anew in her body, which was no longer trembling. Pressing her whole belly against the parapet, leaning toward the wheeling sky, she was only waiting for her pounding heart to settle down, and for the silence to form in her. The last constellations of stars fell in bunches a little lower on the horizon of the desert, and stood motionless. Then, with an unbearable sweetness, the waters of the night began to fill Janine, submerging the cold, rising gradually to the dark center of her being, and overflowing wave upon wave to her moaning mouth. A moment later, the whole sky stretched out above her as she lay with her back against the cold earth."

The Occasion

Motionless

[tenth-sentence]

In an otherwise empty universe, standing perfectly motionless and spinning uniformly are indistinguishable.*

* While I like human examples because they make an immediate connection between the physics we're discussing and innate sensations, a drawback is our ability to move, volitionally, one part of our body relative to another – in effect, to use one part of our body as the benchmark for another part's motion (like someone who spins one of his arms relative to his head). I emphasize uniform spinning motion – spinning motion in which every part of the body spins together – to avoid such irrelevant complications. So, when I talk about your body's spinning, imagine that, like Newton's two rocks tied by a rope or a skater in the final moments of an Olympic routine, every part of your body spins at the same rate as every other.
