Meta/phor/morphosis


Meta- : a prefix meaning 'among', 'together with', 'after', 'behind', 'along with'




One of my approaches to depression is to run away from it:
Today I ran and it was amongst, together with, after, behind, along with
thousands of cicadas emerging, mating and dying before my very eyes.
It was like being hit over the head with a sledge hammer
and I liked it very much.
