Birth exposes the sacred through the muck, mud, and hardship of something so profoundly animalistic that it makes us into something entirely new. This otherworldly place where great transformation happens is the sacred space of birth.”

You would playfully slap my head and say,'This huge noggin nearly tore up my asshole!”
