To be fireside next to a body of water wrapped in a cozy blanket gazing up at the stars as they shine brighter synchronizing with the drowsy sun. Trees nearby and loved ones who feel closer than any definition of family, we can't explain, but gather with guitars and drums singing and laughing and dancing in the moonlight. Sage smoke blowing in the gentle breeze. I see the outline of hammocks unsure who is cradled inside. I hear crickets, distant owls and coyotes, moments of silence making way in between. A story told, a poem fueled by the fire, gratitude shared, tears blessing the Earth and erupting in the most healing laughter. Blankets cozied on a bed of soft grass and moss, a midnight snack offered, exactly what I was craving but didn't even know. Satisfying my hunger perfectly in all senses. Kindness held in blurred silhouettes, hands offering in all the ways one can offer. Dreams come, though I feel as if I am in a dream already. I awake, fresh french pressed coffee, raw milk from the cows across the road, fresh fried eggs from my neighbor's family of chickens with toast of perfect flakiness and softness baked only days before. I thank the universe, I thank mother Earth. I thank my ancestors. I thank all that has led up to this moment, I am renewed, I am cleansed.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Performed songs by moonlight on a tiny bamboo floating bar, on a secluded lake in Vietnam, powered only by an extension cord floating from the land, with a broken mic stand requiring a courageous person balancing on one knee to hold the mic near my mouth for 20 minutes as I strummed my guitar and we swayed on the lake.

教，学，和分享

To share gifts such as songs.
To learn songs. To learn ways to get back to the wild, to connect back with our nature.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Singing, listening and communicating, sharing stories, cooking...whatever else arises, We all contain a world of wonder within us and gifts we may not yet know or see. I tend to be tolerant and respectful, so as long expectations, concerns and needs are expressed and so long as no harm is being done. Every person has something to contribute and stories to share.
