Dear Stonemovers,

I often wonder what the builders of Stonehenge were thinking. They risked life and limb to move 25 ton stones over 20 miles (without wheels) just to stand them upright in a circle.

And for what? A calendar? A burial ground? Whatever it was, it was a structure that they would probably never see completed in their lifetimes.

So they must have had some powerful reason to believe that all of their effort was worthwhile.

We spend most of our 21st century days moving giant stones into structures that we will never see completed. So we too must have faith that what we’re doing is worthwhile.

Sincerely,

Mr. Heimbuck
