a return to gentleness
I recently had the pleasure of spending three blissful days dancing and connecting with beautiful people at the So Cal festival, Lightning in a bottle. One on of the nights I left the dance floor to refill my water bottle. As is often the case, my mind and heart were churning with “aha’s” gleaned while in the throes of dance. As I bent to turn on the tap, the water shot out like a cannon and I had to quickly turn the spigot down to avoid being drenched and wasting a ton of water. In that moment a new insight hit me like a bolt of lightning… how appropriate… ha!

Walking in LA...
Georgana adjusted her pack as she walked in the direction she hoped would lead to the only water source within a 50 mile radius… at least, according to her half moth eaten map. It was missing some chunks, but still served her purposes most of the time. Georganas’ shoulders were strong but not yet accustomed to the pressure and roughness of the straps. She wistfully remembered a time when her shoulders were free to feel the sun and the wind instead of the sweat and accumulated dirt between her skin and the pack, which held all that she owned. Shaking off the memories of a sweeter time with the reminder that she needed all her senses alert in this new world, she made a fist with her hand and peered through the tiny hole made between the curl of her fingers and her palm. Her self-made tiny telescope gave her a clearer view of the horizon. She scanned left to right, a habit she had acquired to watch for dangers. If she spotted people or animals far enough off, she had a chance of dropping to the ground to hide before they saw her. In the scrub brush and scattered rocks, she could still make herself scarce… even in the flat, desert terrain of what used to be Los Angeles.
