After Transcendence, Choosing Reality

How grief and belonging shape us after transcendence, forcing us to return to reality.

Thought of the Day

If you have time to chatter,
Read Books.
If you have time to read books,
Walk into the mountains, desert, and ocean.
If you have time to walk,
Sing a song and dance.
If you have time to dance,
Sit quietly, you, happy lucky idiot.
