“Picture a bird perched on a thin branch,” she says. “The branch sways in the wind, and each time this happens the bird’s field of view shifts. You know what i mean?”
I nod.
“When that happens, how do you think the bird adjusts?”
i shake my head. ”i don’t know.”
“It bobs its head up and down, making up for the sway of the branch. Take a good look at the birds the next time its windy. i spent lot of time looking out that window. Don’t you think that kind of life would be tiring? Always shifting your head every time the branch you’re on sways?”
