About a size 9 foot walking across the desert 8 years before you. Everything out there tells a story. Thats why im here. Because im looking for stories. Im looking for these same kinds of stories that i find in the desert. I came to hear straight from Grace Cathedral today where i walked into the cathedral and i took off my shoes and walked on the maze thats right in the front, in the center.

You pick up the patterns of people who were there before you because, out there, things seem to last forever. If you put a footprint down in certain places, that footprint will stay for 5 years, maybe even 10 years for somebody whos got a really good eye whe
