September 27, 2019 - A Call to Women: Loving our Wounded World
Through this practice, I came back to myself. To the vastness. To who I really am. Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse
Tyson said, “We are part of this universe, we are in this universe. But perhaps more important than both of
those facts is that the universe is in us.” I feel like that’s what I was tapping into as a kid: that
the universe was in me. And it’s not like I’m that special. I think we all recognize that at some
point, when we were a kid, we had the ability to tap into something that was real, connected, and deeper than this
material life we’re so used to. That tapping in had the sense of freedom. And it felt fantastic.
