\nAll my life there has been a tension between my need to feel anchored and my reality of being set adrift. I’m now so much more ethereal than grounded that I’m not sure I would know how to be otherwise. I suppose this is the difference between life as it is and how we imagine ourselves in it.<\/p>\n
