“We live in a world that is alive and generous and in need of care. Strangely, paradoxically, it is in serving and singing and telling our stories to one another that we discover the homecoming we’ve been longing for has been here, among and within us, along.”

“We map our world in story. The world falls apart. We map a new world. Again and again we story our lives in order to situate ourselves: I am here, not there. I am here and long to go there. Once found, new possibilities emerge. Curiosity rises within us. We feel the pull to discover new countries, traverse new oceans.”

“To expose ourselves to another human's journey is to not only hear the ground truth but also to allow our hearts to soften and our minds to open so that we can access greater empathy, compassion, and trust. So that we can offer the same hospitality to others that we ourselves long to receive.”
