Pieces falling into place


It is happening! Not even a week has passed since my firm resolve to follow my heart' desire to break free and take my new self out for a trot around the Globe - out there, to the blue yonder.....And the Universe has gifted me with abundance to begin my World journey. I can feel titanium resolve that has crystalized within me. I am going. The approximate departure - early November [right after my last Wisdom Unlimited weekend].

It is truly amazing how the Matrix shifts around an unbending intention! Goethe's lines come to mind:



"Concerning all acts of initiative ( and creation),
there is one elementary truth 
the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans:
...that the moment one definitely commits oneself, 
then providence moves too.
 All sorts of things occur to help one
 that would never otherwise have occurred. 
A whole stream of events issues from the decision,
 raising in one's favour all manner 
of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, 
which no man could have dreamed would have come his way."


 I feel humbled and incredibly grateful! Synchronously with the glowing news of the day, I had a Tarot reading form a dear friend. And it has clearly confirmed that an exploration with-out as with-in is "in the cards."

There has been great stuckness and a muck of unclarity that I have felt here for the past few months. A rumbling background unease, a desire to act and not knowing which direction to turn to. And now I know. It's simply "out there." I must keep moving. I must explore. I must live a bit after emerging from the tumultuous sea of transformation I have been afloat on for the past two years. Now that I have my "skin suit" back in beautiful shape, I crave to live a bit through it!

I have asked for a jolt of clarity on my heart's call/purpose/direction. And today - I stand in the clear. I have an option to stay here, create art and look for the next "career." An option that eats dust when compared to my world journey - that elicits music from the harp of my heart....that makes me want to get up in the morning and leap into my day. That is what I shall do. Once again, a leap of faith...........yet, do any of us truly have much more than that to rely on? Some birds are just not meant to be caged.

05/24/2013 Tonsai Beach, Thailand Home, Sweet Home!  Photo credit:  www.lederhosening.com I come out onto my patio and see a root of a banyan tree wiggle. Wait. That's no root. That's an iguana camouflaging as one – humbly looking for breakfast. A big one. Craggy karst rocks pierce the horizon in Pandora-esque starkness. The sky is crochet with a white-to-lilac cumulus nimbus, the temperature gently hovering around the “just perfect” mark. A hammock rocks gently under a leafy tree in the winds of the Andaman, as the milky-turquoise steamy waves sing a hymn to this paradise. In that hammock no more than a few metres from the shore, lays a blond girl clad in diaphanous raw silk holding a furry black cat. She is me. Azure butterflies sprinkle themselves like oversized confetti throughout the jungle. The bull frogs vibrate the jungle with moans that would put most peacocks in heat to shame. The cicadas cast their hypnotic spell over the fecund forest on the s...

My Jjimjilbanging Seoul

Image
01.28.2013 Seoul, South Korea My Jjimjilbanging Seoul Korea is a busy place. The work hours are long and vacations are short for most locals. A 12 hour work day is customary. A five-day a year vacation – a norm. The kids are not exempt from this working frenzy – an average child attends 4 after-school academies, making “Johnny a dull boy.” Yet, no complaint is to be heard. Neither from an adult nor from a child. To a question “How do you do it?” a frequent response is “oh, it's just my job...” while the kids just shrug their shoulders as if it hasn't even occurred for them to question this state of affairs. Truly, a a curious way of acceptance. However, I believe, there is one “escape hatch” that helps Koreans brave the freezing winters and intense working conditions in this tiny, densely-populated country. The Jjimjilbangs, a Korean spin on the Roman Baths, and Oncheon – jjimjilbangs built on the natural hot springs, of which there are over 400 in Korea. If...

True Colours of Utah

11.29.2012 Crystallizing Utah Utah is many things....and amazing fall colours are its hallmark. Bear Creek canyon near Mt. Nebo, UT, was my daily "stomping ground" for a few months. The trails there are steep, the air - fresh, and the colours - breathtaking. See for yourself! Ascending Mt. Nebo Our heroic Cat has multiplied yet again. Behold - left to right - Charcoal, Peach, Felty, Tigra. Our furry "Utah fruit" two months later.
