"How can you deal with this ceaselessly pulsing aorta of life with anything but spirituality?" Heather King,The Closest to Love We Ever Get

But most of us still get up each morning and walk out into the world hopeful. Maybe that is because we know exactly what a ceaselessly pulsing aorta of life feels like—it is us; we are part of it and we know it needs to be connected to our hearts.
