    Description

    The most important accomplishment you can make in the universe, Swimme says, it to discover your authentic role. Pursuing our passions as we respond to the deep currents of energy in the universe may be the ultimate creative act. The promise the universe makes to us, as we find our way into our authentic selves, is that the community of life will blossom forth, and our lives become filled with meaning and coherence.
