A Prayer Last week I went into a black hole. I was sucked into the agony of parents ripped from their children, children torn from their parents, and the senseless incarceration of innocent people. Babies. It was the agony of children crying alone, sub-zero ICE and...

In 1995 I was told to go into nature because the Earth wanted to speak to me. I found a little stream in Tesuque, New Mexico, and I was told to stand in the water. Immediately the Earth spoke to me. She told me she was crying for the wrongs done to her body as I had...
