The Starlight Still Within Us

The heart-work is in the hearing. The hearing is in the listening. The listening is in the legend that once upon a time a rocket ship made of words brought us to life and from pathos came ethos and egos and hard work and scattering and scavenging the ditches for ideas that will teach us how to touch the starlight that’s still left in us on this journey back home where it feels like our parents have locked us in a room full of brownies and scorpions.

The Beautiful Life of Marcia Garcia

You look at some in our streets and you see people without homes, without families, and they are using drugs. They have forgotten to believe in their dreams and now they suffer. When you lose your dreams, you lose everything.”
