About

We come into the world.

We come into the world and there it is.

The sun is there.

The brown of the river leading to the blue and the brown of the
           ocean is there.

Salmon and eels are there moving between the brown and the brown
           and the blue.

The green of the land is there.

Elders and youngers are there.

Fighting and possibility and love are there.

And we begin to breathe.

We come into the world and there it is.

We come into the world without and we breathe it in.

We come into the world.

We come into the world and we too begin to move between the
           brown and the blue and the green of it.

  "As we become purer channels for God's light, we develop an appetite for the sweetness that is possible in this world. A miracle worker is not geared toward fighting the world that is, but toward creating the world that could be."

Marianne Williamson
