I have these weird days where I feel a sense of displacement;
It's almost like I am purposely placed there in the grand rising of the day
To find my way back.
It's in the journey back to self; back home
That I find the juice of what I need to learn,
What I need to embody,
It's not always in the good that I learn best, but sometimes,
when I am just thrown into the wilderness to find my way back.
Along the way; I collect stones,
I learn to make food,
I discover what my body really needs. What it doesn't...
And, because it is so quiet, I learn how loud my mental chatter is
I tell it to "shut up". "Pipe down". "You're a distraction"
It's not ALL just noise; some of it is guidance.
It is through the stillness that I learn what to;
Shut Out, ignore,
Allow to pass through,
Keep as a guiding light in my consciousness.
It calls me to unlock new levels of being every time.
It's an intricate journey, but I am learning to Find My Way Home
Each time, with more tenacity, speed and accuracy.
I have come to enjoy the Journey Back Home every time.
