The One (Tiger’s Eye)

2021-03-12

"I wish I were like a rock sturdy and strong, enduring polished smooth by the forces that beat against me a safe resting place for storm tossed souls. Sometimes, I am." -Rev. Polly Guild, "Meditations from Star Island" It's not easy to make yourself vulnerable. But inspired by Alex and Sharon, this is where my journey took me, following the path of three souls in Rama. Decent people that I found reflections of in myself. I hope sharing my story means something to you as well.
