"I am not one who was born in the custody of wisdom. I am one who is fond of olden times and intense in quest of the sacred knowing of the ancients." Gustave Courbet

Align.


We are contemporary citizens living in a technological world. Swimming in cross cultural waters can be dangerous, and if you are honest you can't stay there very long. Sooner or later you have to look at your own reflection and decide what to do with yourself.

We are an urban people. We make periodic pilgrimages to the country. If we align ourselves with the spirit of place we will find humility fused with joy.

The land holds stories.

Terry Tempest Williams
