I've felt like I haven't been able to share properly because people might think me a little woo. I tried. I told some people it felt like a psychedelic trip. But if I were speaking without fear I would say. "Yeah, I just finished the Yoga Teacher Training." Then they'd say. "Oh, interesting. How was it?" I'd smile and briefly be at loss for words then say, "I was guided there by the wind. She's really spectacular you know, the wind? Have you met her? It's been awhile since I've sung to her, but here I am again listening and learning. I think Echo listens to the wind too, she's the woman who put this whole shebang on. Incredible, truly. Maybe she is the wind. Maria and Evangalos too, what a privilege it was to be a student to their life story, and life work." I'd stop for a moment, and then with heartfelt energy say "I feel like I've been shown how to move and feel more deeply. How to express differently and express more. I saw that my ability to communicate was struggling, and my honesty was hanging by a thread. I learned that I can be a storm and still be lovely, be quiet and yet be heard. Smile and love with more intention. I'm slowly being introduced to death. We are moving towards a lifelong friendship (; I mediated a few nights ago on it. It is all a continued introduction to living, being alive. An open door, a fresh breath of air. A kind holding of the hand. It was a chaotic heart beating, and a slowed moment of sadness. A desperation to leave allowed to stay, and a permission to leave done so with love. In this space of gratitude I think warmly of the ones that came on this expedition as well. Faces that move with the same expressions I feel. Hearts that yearn, love, feel defeat. Hands that reach out to give and push away. I take these people along with me, some faces remain, others may drift. Yet their presence has touched mine, and I smile a bit brighter because it, I learn a bit more about myself because of them." And then I come to, realizing that I've been staring at screen for far too long. So long that the sentence box is moving vibrating a moving. With expansive love, may we all feel, I take my leave.
