The desert is a great place to confront your deepest thoughts and emotions and to try and make sense of the struggles of life. It is a place that can put a hot spell on you and your dreams and deepest yearnings. It is a quiet solitary place where relentless heat bears down on your memories and yearnings to make something of it all. It is a place of great paradox. Bright sun and dark shadows.
