Hi, Brian! I am reading your Cinku and I am being transported to the universe's realm... powerful stars that inspire awe! These are God's creations bringing light into the Universe.

Yes, they do reach for the stars....so magnificent are they!! Growing up in California, one of my earliest memories is my parents taking a photograph of my brother and I beneath a giant sequoia in Sequoia National Park...and of course there are old photographs of automobiles driving through the hallowed out base of these giants. Unbelieveable if you don't see them for yourselves! They are wonders of the world. ~ Love, Carrie
