I talked to her about a very personal connection I felt with the guy. I asked her about her name. It is an Indian name, Maya, I said. It was Maya who articulated it for me. She said, "He walks between worlds." That captured it for me. It was then I realized why I connect with the guy so very personally.
Barack Obama walks between worlds.
