Synopsis
It’s all natural phenomena. There’s no doubt about that. The tide turns in cycles. Water rots wood. Meteors may fall anytime, anywhere. Fishes die if they stay out of the water for too long. This process takes time and when it ends there’s no turning back. When one of these things does not take place, something fundamental has changed. That’s when miracles happen.
