A Library for Wild Sacred Places
One of the things that I love so much about going on long trips by car is that I am not limited to what I can carry. So, for me, that means that I bring books. Lots of them.

The Gift of Words
What you would like to bring more of to the world? Words. Beautiful words that elevate the soul while singing psalms of love to the body. Words that evoke those invisible things that make up the dimensions of a life well lived. Words that call us home, that offer comfort, solace, peace, acceptance. Words that reflect back to us the true and radiant beauty of ourselves in our fullness. What motivates you to bring these — why do you bring them? Because this is how we know god. This is how we know ourselves. This is how we dance with the divine, how we partner our soul’s true purpose –…
