5,000 miles is a long way to go when you're chasing the memory of home. Last I saw Perche Creek and limestone walls I hardly knew myself as Spirit. The pines stood tall against the cold, gray skies and the air hung heavy with sorrow.
Now I sit on this island in the ocean of peace, daydreaming of a family I hardly know. With moonstone 'round my finger and the medicine drum by my side, I feel I have come so far since then. This love now has a name and she goes by Little Feet.
And oh so far I thought I had gone only to see clearly now I've come full circle. In the dreamland you can forget time and space and remember ALL is ONE.
If I know now I am the grand storyteller of this experience, why would I choose to create one more tale of life lived through the filters of pain and fear?
It is time to re-right the story.
I have never been wrong.
I chose this life.
I can see now I am a rainbow bridge, singing loud the song of love for all to hear.
I headed west so I could forget the pain. And now I find myself longing to travel east so I can heal it.
All this time I thought I was running from the harsh winters and a family that didn't love me. But now I see it was my frightened heart I was trying to escape.
There is so much love to share- no need to be afraid for it is the only thing that is real.
Let these illusions of separation be purified by the radiant sun of our sacred heart fire.
Oh hummingbird, Divine messenger to the Gods, please let Spirit know I remember now why I've come here. For this re-union of Earth and Star families will serve to remind ALL of our Divine birthright.
Never knowing where I belonged, no place ever felt like home until I opened my being fully to love, and then realized I would never long for home again.
It's funny to think back to the me I was at 16- a midwestern girl with a pocket full of crystals, meditating with Ravi Shankar playing in the background and a copy of Be Here Now at my side.
How did I fool myself into believing I had to go anywhere?
Now, nearly two decades later I find myself in an eerily similar state, with the plucking of Sitar strings stirring these feelings of nostalgia and I feel I'm finally ready to go home.
