Awe...Deference... and Devotion (with a bit of reverence thrown in for fun)
I find myself in awe of acclaimed poet W.S. Merwin. John Saul tells truly dark tales and yet his family built a bright place of devotion. Buzz Bissinger found fame by chronicling a town that reveres the game of high school football. And Dan Millman defers to the spiritual side when looking for meaning and purpose.
