In contrast to how a child belongs in the world, adult belonging is never as natural, innocent, or playful. Adult belonging has to be chosen, received, and renewed. It is a lifetime's work.

Every day we are engaged in a miracle which we don't even recognize: a blue sky, white clouds, green leaves, the black curious eyes of a child, our own two eyes. All is a miracle-" Thich Nhat Hanh - Vietnamese Monk, Activist and… Continue

This is such a fantastic ESSENCE show I created last week - dedicated to eagle men and changing women... I got inspired by reading the legend of the eagle and how once in their life they have to retreat and pluck alllllll their feathers out to make themselves lighter and even have to break their beak... so that they can grow a new one... and go deeply into that alone space. Yes, that was 2008 for Ms. Johnstad.
