What is evolution if not creative adaptation and the progression of our own souls?

I can only tell where I feel most at home, which is in the erosional landscape of the red rock desert of southern Utah, where the Colorado River cuts through sandstone and the geologic history of the Earth is exposed: our home in Castle Valley.

We are animal. We are Earth. We are water. We are a community of human beings living on this planet together. And we forget that. We become disconnected, we lose our center point of gravity, that stillness that allows us to listen to life on a deeper level and to meet each other in a fully authentic and present way.

Abundance is a dance with reciprocity - what we can give, what we can share, and what we receive in the process.

For me, it always comes back to the land, respecting the land, the wildlife, the plants, the rivers, mountains, and deserts, the absolute essential bedrock of our lives. This is the source of where my power lies, the source of where all our power lies.

I appreciate all of the unexpected places, internal and external, that my writing has taken me.

There is an art to writing, and it is not always disclosure. The act itself can be beautiful, revelatory, and private.
