LIFE'S STORY
All of life has a story . All existence has as well. The lowest form of life is as infinitely interesting as is life itself. Inanimate life like stones or mountains, even long extinct life, now fossilized or pieces of fossils can be fascinating. This last point I discerned on reading CENTENNIAL in 1976, James A. Michener's epic .

In it, the master storyteller brings mountains to life in their geological niches and most memorably treats of a baby bison's metamorphosis from calf to breeder and beyond.
All life and non life is interesting when we but pause to consider it.
