I look up at the Baja night sky and trace the line from Orion’s Belt down to the brightest star, Sirius, wishing its beam could pull me into space.

An essay published in Moonshine Inc. : Paradise is Far and Near

This essay was two years in the making. It was difficult to write because it was so deeply personal. I am hoping it opens up the conversation in our mountain community brimming with athletes and health obsessed people. In the end, we are all vulnerable, even the people we worship and put on the pedestal of invincibility.
