Today the theme for the dispatches from the universe seemed to be about space, so I headed to the most spacious-feeling destination in my local downtown environment - the plaza surrounding the William R. Snodgrass Tennessee Tower.
There's something about the whole feel of the space and the new, spring plantings that reminds me of visiting the Getty Center when it first opened years ago, so it all seems lovely, artful, and intentional to me.
It felt great to open to the physical space and feel the wind rushing all around me, blowing all my thoughts and cares away. And I found myself returning and returning to the question of authenticity. When all the extra "stuff" blows away, what's left?
