Caroline Coggins.
There is something about being in Bali that elicits a strong response in us.
Yes, it is very beautiful and warm, but it is more than this. Every Balinese is trying to come back as a god.
I wonder if this affects us when we are there? Does it activate our own longing to deepen our relationship with our own lives?.
