“I wish we could live the rest of our lives on these rocks,' I said. 'Why isn't it possible to just live at the edge of both, the ocean and the land?'
Of course I knew why. The edge was an uncomfortable and dangerous place for both of us. The rocks were nowhere to live. I had wanted him to come to my world for that same reason.
'One day these rocks won't be here,' he said. 'The ocean will waste them away.'
'Then we could find new rocks,' I said.
'Eventually you have to choose,' he said. 'That's how the story has always been and that's the way it will be forever.'
'But why?' I asked.
'Well,' he said, thinking, 'I guess because the choice is always there.”
― The Pisces

“When we enter the world of birth, we step across the threshold from the mundane to the sacred. Pregnancy and birth are a space between worlds — a liminal space — a place where you are no longer not a parent and not yet one either. This betwixt and between is sacred space within which powerful and profound events occur — often uninvited.”
