Absolutely love the tension between all of these different worlds you're describing. The flow between the past, present, future and the juxtaposition of humanity, your family roles, and your own identity. So good!

"We all want to discover something exceptional and we bring Megan our rocks again and again, cradling in our palms what we hope is ancient. And indeed, our hope is ancient." Wow, love this Alissa!
