“None of Life’s truly magnificent undertakings can ever hope to even faintly register in our mind’s comprehension thereof until we start boldly living them. In truth, no amount of pondering or planning or preparing can hope to come close to giving us even the most shimmering glimpse of what any great Leap of Faith can be once it is finally & truly taken. So it is with acts of raw selflessness we call “Love”, so it is with acts of communal care we call “Family”, and so it is with acts of bold Faith we call “Pilgrimage” — the latter of which, when undertaken potently, is always performed under the penumbra of selfless Love; and the latter of which, as a matter of true course, thereby always ends up creating quite an immense Family indeed.”
