“Always behind the actions of writing, painting, thinking, healing, doing, cooking, talking, smiling, making, is the river, the Río Abajo Río; the river under the river nourishes everything we make.”
[Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Women Who Run with the Wolves]

A something in a summer’s noon—
A depth—an Azure—a perfume—
Transcending ecstasy.

[Emily Dickinson, A something in a Summer’s day…]
