There is a great essence that inhabits us, that leaks from our soul, that floods our grandeur, that engulfs our possibility.

There is an authentic presence that defines us, that bleeds dignity, that devours creativity, that oozes originality.

There is a furious strength that radiates from us, that detonates our passion, that explodes our dreams, that demolishes our failings.

And so we stand bare...before the judgment of our God, elders, ancestors and gods, living an unpredictable and unexpected life.
