Palimpsest (n): a parchment or other writing surface on which the original text has been effaced or partially erased, and then overwritten by another.
“We are relative. We are mature in one realm, childish in another. The past, present, and future mingle and pull us backward, forward, or fix us in the present. We are made up of layers, cells, constellations.”
― Anais Nin
