I live and write on Lingít Aaní, and gratefully acknowledge the past, present and future caretakers of this beautiful place, the Jilkaat Kwaan and Jilkoot Kwaan.

“When we start at the center of ourselves, we discover something worthwhile extending toward the periphery of the circle. We find again some joy in the now, some peace in the here, some love in the me and thee which go to make up the kingdom of heaven on earth.”— Anne Morrow Lindbergh in “Gift from the Sea”
