When I dance, I know I’m alive here and now. My body and soul are in harmony." -- Maria Nhambu]]>

I suggest you take a vacation. There’s nothing much that’s going to happen here.” With that she left, leaving Brown more confused than ever. He was a father, he had a son. And, the Levitians had a cure for his drug-addled body." -- Max Nowaz]]>

		</link>
		<description>
	    <![CDATA["At that time, her core burned relentlessly with passion, desire, and complete disorientation. Their union was officiated by a queen she’d only heard of in folklore, and the people of the valleys reached for her and clamored to see the bride like she was their elixir. All of this only intensified the yearnings pulsing through her body and soul. She remembers one young lady, a commoner really, who pushed in from a crowd, sweaty and pregnant, to grab Lylitte’s hand. She locked eyes with her and saw the fever raging inside; it was in all the people in those days, the shamelessness, and a lust for all things of the new world. It was like a hurricane for life that no one could understand who hadn’t felt it.
“Only when we experience true loss are we pulled back into our own dreaming," -- Joseph A. Anderson]]>

		<description>
	    <![CDATA["How surely gravity's law,
strong as an ocean current,
takes hold of the smallest thing
and pulls it toward the heart of the world.

Each thing---
each stone, blossom, child---
is held in place.
Only we, in our arrogance,
push out beyond what we each belong to
for some empty freedom.

If we surrendered
to earth's intelligence
we could rise up rooted, like trees.

Instead we entangle ourselves
in knots of our own making
and struggle, lonely and confused.

So like children, we begin again
to learn from the things,
because they are in God's heart;
they have never left him.

This is what the things can teach us:
to fall,
patiently to trust our heaviness.
Even a bird has to do that
before he can fly." -- Rainer Maria Rilke]]>

	    <![CDATA["One more time? For the audience?&quot; he says. His voice isn't angry. It's hollow, which is worse. Already the boy with the bread is slipping away from me.
