Who am I? by Mary Cook I am a composite: I long to fly beyond my personal concerns and I am pulled back by the instinct to stay safe within my comfortable home. The world is not outside me; I am the world. I am a soul trying to lead a life consistent with what I sayI want to be and do. I am a soul with countless opportunities for expanding my ways of thinking, feeling and acting. I am responsible for helping to create the inner and outer environments that nourish all life. I am a particle of energy that sparkles in the universe.
