    [synopsis] => Williams tells the story of her initiation by the living land when she was 7 years old. While taking a school trip she ended up alone, in the dark, in Mount Timpanogos Cave. For a brief but powerful moment she felt the beating heart of the mountain. She says, "For the rest of my life I've been trying to retrieve that sacred space I felt inside that mountain alone. I have been searching for that moment when you're part of something so old, so deep, so true." Take a tour with Williams and find the relevance of our national parks in the 21st century and how these public commons might bring us back home to a united state of humility. It's Terry Tempest Williams' hope that we learn what it is to offer our reverence and respect to the closest thing we have to sacred lands. Ken Burns and Dayton Duncan stated that our American national parks are our best idea. Williams goes on to say, "And I would argue that they are our evolving idea; it's never one story but many stories that are rooted in these American landscapes." She reminds us that as we visit these public lands we can tune into a stillness that is outside of all the noise, distractions, and chaos in our everyday life. "They are places where we find a united state of humility ... We are in this deeply fractured and divided country. I think if we could listen more to each other we would find a compassion that would surprise us." (hosted by Justine Willis Toms)
