I try not to ponder
about it too much because the truth is, it hurts—my head spins around and
around and back around again attempting to figure out where this dream situate
is that I belong. Yet, I am dog-tired searching for it. Now, don’t get me
wrong, I love traveling, meeting new people, eating new foods and learning new
cultures. But I also love building a network (community), growing a garden and
spending time with family and friends. Deep in my heart I do know where it is that I belong, and it
is not here in Mississippi, nor is it in California. It is most likely not even
in the United States.
When in the
United States, I do as the citizens: I wake up at the crack of dawn, drive my
gas-guzzlin, anxiety-benevolent car to work, spend half my day at work where I
overdose on caffeine and have a face not-so-happy people, then get off with
enough time to eat and sleep, and do it all over again the next day. Hmph..
Although the
above paragraph sounded slightly depressing, I manage to stay quite happy
throughout my day, knowing that the Universe does everything for a reason, so I
AM in the right place at the right time. Maybe my kindness will change someone
else’s day, maybe their kindness will do the same for mine. Perhaps, maybe,
possibly… there are numerous reasons why I am in Mississippi at this present
moment, and only in the future will more of those reasons be exposed.
Nevertheless,
I am ready to be more alive. I am
ready to do what it is I was born to do. I want to live in a place where I am
not woken up by an alarm clock, but by the warm rising sun. I don’t want to
live life rushed. I want to embrace every moment, moment by moment. I want step
out of my living space and into the sand, I want to be surrounded by ocean. I
want swimming in the sea to be my daily bath, and breakfast to be fleshly
picked off the trees and vines. I don’t want a lock on my front door, or have a
car parked in the drive way, I want my evenings to be lit by the moon and
candle light… I don’t want to have a bank account, a mobile phone or anything
of the equivalent.
With that
being said, I do want to work though. I want to have a purpose and reason for
each day. I want to go out into the world and radiate my Light. Being on Earth
means interacting with other humans, being a humanitarian is my call. There are
various occupation choices I could take, yet I will not know what that is until
I am there. There being a place where hammocks are tied off on every other
tree, coconuts and papayas grow in abundance, the sun is always shining and
where there never is that of a ‘bad’ day.
I want out of
the system and off the grid. That
is what 2013 is about.
