I recently bought a globe of the world, one that lights up. I am sure that at some point I will use it as a bedside lamp. Right now, though, it feels more like I have the world in my temporary home, which I can spin and let my finger point at a random destination. Now that I think about it, I have always loved maps of the whole world. Looking at them puts everything in perspective somehow and ties all the scattered fragments together in harmonious union (to bring chaos to order on one neat piece of paper!). The feeling also reminds me of being at airports, where the whole world becomes much smaller and the people (even if they are stressed) come together from every corner. It gives me a real feeling of unity and one-ness.
