Writing: Finding Birdsong – Ann  Staley 
August 7 — 13

The title of this workshop comes from Mark Nepo's spiritual memoir, "Seven Thousand Ways to Listen."

"We forever drift in and out of the miracle before us. As our eyes dilate and constrict in order to see, we are opened by love, wonder, and truth into the immediacy of all that is incomprehensible, only to wrestle with pain, loss, and obstacles that make us constrict. And during the wrestle, the miracle of life seems out of reach. Though once enduring what we're given, pain and loss open us further. This is how the human heart sees."
