I am interested in “life force”. In asking the question: at what point does life begin & cease in all living matter. I see energy as a catalyzing and transforming force. Everything in the universe is made up of some form of matter, which is in a perpetual state of change, from the smallest particle of dust to the continual restless movement of the mind. Thus the passage of everything in the universe, physical or psychological is in a constant cycle of generation, degeneration and regeneration. I am interested in the concept of interconnectedness of matter, I see all life forms as participating in an evolving universe; we are intrinsically connected to the cycle of life.
