I am the one who has survived fire and storm and famine and cancer. I am the one who has danced in the flaming forest and wrestled with the fierce wild animals of the night. I am the one who is so sure of my own inner safety that I can close my eyes and be with myself even when the enemy is right beside me. I am the one who feels the beating of my own precious heart and knows that that is where my strength and courage come from.
