Rather than renounce closeness to others for spiritual enlightenment, it seems right to demand from life all it has to offer, including attachments to loved ones. But not let motherhood define her. That is the story of Santiaga.

On a spring day with sunshine and breeze, feel again the foolishness of giving up, of believing life is meaningless.

When you feel the withholding from the universe, look within. The answers to questions, the solutions to suffering, and what to do about it, will be found there.
