Original artwork, not a still

Helen Keller

It’s wonderful to climb the liquid mountains of the sky. Behind me and before me is God and I have no fears.

Behind the line

Our interpretation.

The sky becomes a landscape of liquid mountains in this joyful description of movement and height. The speaker then connects the absence of fear with a sense of God on every side. The passage reads as an expression of wonder supported by personal faith.
