		<description><![CDATA[Powerful words, Dan. Thanks for sharing them. 

For me, whether it&#039;s tragedy on large scale or small, it&#039;s about learning to detach -- not from the event itself, but from the need to know what it &quot;means.&quot; It&#039;s about trusting in the presence of higher meaning while releasing my very human desire to know what that meaning is. It&#039;s about separating &quot;want to know&quot; from &quot;need to know.&quot;The former is ever-present, yet I feel called to let it go. The latter is an illusion.

Thanks again, Dan, for letting the wisdom that comes through you illuminate so many others, too.]]></description>
