No one knows what will happen if her father changes the past.

Part invitation, part musing, part blessing, Slouching Toward Radiance is a call to show up to life in the way that works best for you.

Wherever the words land, and however you decide to respond to them, you may just find it's possible to find renewal in the ordinary dance of living.
