Since UC Santa Cruz is such a liberal campus, I am constantly overhearing conversations about social justice, equality and politics from the cafes and bus stops. Sometimes the conversations can be so overwhelming and stimulating that I need to take a moment to be by myself. I will find a hidden trail and walk into the woods to clear my mind for a bit. Today, I was walking through the forest and I saw a family of deer eating from the grass. I asked myself, "I wonder what they talk about?" "Do they quarrel about social structures and about how one of their fur is shinier than the other and how the Papa deer shouldn't have custody of the baby deer after their horrible break up last fall? Since when did human beings become so complicated?
