 Meg Riley, Director of the UU Washington Office for Faith in
 Action: Touching Wholeness in a Broken World
 
 We know it when we feel it. Suddenly the breath changes, we are
 in a different world from the one we are sentenced to by our
 culture, by our media, by our government. And the colors are
 more vivid, and our noses quiver with the ecstacy of the scent
 of life, and then in an instant it's gone again. How do we use
 such moments as compasses to guide us home again when we so
 often feel destined to wander forever in a strange land?
