I did not know my father’s mother, but I remember being at the home of my cousin, Eddie McDaniel, and having him show me a […] From The Book of Awakening, by Mark Nepo (December 3) It reminds me of a dream I had when ill, in which I came to the edge of a forest where the narrow, lighted spaces called to me.
