“I am afraid to die before I figure out what it is. Afraid to die before I find a heart in which to hide.”
Athena Dixon, The Loneliness Files
“Maybe it is better to stay connected to each other in the unknown or the mystical. To request a piece of something solid be absorbed into us so we can never forget from whence we came. This keeps us rooted in history and the humanness that can get lost in the modern world. It's a hands-to-the-earth practice that lets each of us be free in the not knowing. It's not ignorance, it's faith and some measure of innocent that allows us to suspend belief in our current world -- a port amid the chaos.”
