One Love. One Loob....

As I sit here,
reflecting on
what has come
to pass....
memories and dreams
flood
the inside
of my eyelids
and painted murals
decorate
the inner chambers
held Sacred
in my mind.

It seems surreal,
these
vivid depictions
of sharing circles
and performances,
but the
evidence
left behind
begs to differ.

And it hits me....

All those lonely nights,
all the times
I thought
no one would understand...

That integral part of me
feeling so lost
and confused....
trying to ignore
the ache
and emptiness
of something
always.............
.........missing.........

I searched and searched.

Traveling far and wide.

To places that were hidden.

To realms
only the truly stubborn
could find.

I went within
the confines
of my own subconscious.

Into dreams
that appeared
to be
nonsensical
only hinting
of wisdom
and ancient knowledge.

I jumped
out of
airplanes.

Spoke with
Scotland's fairies.

Sang with
the blue butterflies
of Costa Rica.

I danced
on the
Etheric
in a
fire ritual
with the
Ancestors
of the
Dagara Tribe.

I entered
the womb
of the
Mother
on the land
of the Chumash
multiple times
and purified
my troubled soul.

I drank in
the sweetness
of the jasmine
flowers
and swam
in the healing waters
of Hawaii.

I collected.

I nurtured.

I breathed in
Ohana and Aloha,
Pura Vida and Monteverde....
finding communities
within
Findhorn,
Malidoma,
Ojai and
every city I visited...

and yet...

I felt
a strong affinity
with All.

It felt close.
So close.

But,
it was
as if
the thinnest layer,
almost invisible,
was keeping
the picture
fuzzy
and
out of focus.

And perhaps,
this Path
around the globe
and
the inner
excavation
within
was what
I needed
to find
what I
had been
looking for
all along.

Kapwa.

Loob.

My Tribe.

The arduous
but rewarding
journey
led me
to come

Full Circle.

To the Beginning...

Where
all these
elements
came together
to....

Welcome Us All.... Home.....
