A wandering prophet, waiting for the ship that will finally carry him home, gathers the people of the city one last time and answers their questions on love, work, marriage, children and death, one gentle sermon at a time.

Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself.
The Prophet, Kahlil Gibran
