The Teacher

She was all about intention and authenticity. The Taos landscape was deep in her fibers, a balance of the sparseness of the desert with the joy of having space to breathe and understand yourself in the quiet. The thing about the desert is that it seems empty and lifeless at first glance if you are used to lush forests and plains. It takes patience and a keen eye to appreciate the subtle beauty and life that exists there. It takes letting go of assumptions and the illusions of modern life, and claiming your choices. She had much to teach.
