bridges. tunnels.


Elementary arithmetic and reasoning help us see the distance between two points. Everything holds an agreeable space between itself and something else. These things can be measured in concrete terms. We can even readily comprehend that there are multiple ways to move between our said two points, varying the result. For most things we have the sun, maps, charts, and GPS at our side. With further consideration we can even determine our needs along the way, such as fuel, reading material, and consumables. When point A and point B are instead two humans, things get a lot messier.
