to something so minor
as a few harmless spurts
Pamela Castelli has experienced the profound healing poetry can offer as she moves forward on her journey, as expressed by Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, not as an earthly being having a spiritual experience but as a spiritual being having an earthly experience. She is a psychotherapist helping individuals heal from traumatic childhood experiences.
