i found myself on windy dirt roads in west maui yesterday -
baba's sharing spliffs and tunes on the ukulele
my ukulele - well - er - my?? ukulele
i guess i should say the sister, "Sweet Baby J" that kinda picked me up in the store and chose me to go home with her
wherever home is these days
on a beach
by a waterfall
on a coach or a sweet loves bed
where is home - it changes daily, minutely, today i've decided to take myself to kuaui and strum baby j on beaches by waterfalls out that way
it's alone time -challenging my fear time- spending endless hours writing and singing and dancing with the ocean time
powerful time
leads to me thinking about all of you - enjoying my deep deep love and blessed gratitude for the opportunity to just love each and every one of you
friends.family.community. something that i've been so blessed to share and celebrate with my whole life and now - in sacred, totally fucked up, monsanto ridden maui, i'm finally for the first time spending time with me. just me. no longer as scared to camp, explore, play music and be alone.
woohoo!
so yesterday - the dirt roads lead me and a brewing brother to a chakruna patch - the sacred queen whose leaves produce ioasca. and she spoke to me, as we harvested in the lush jungle valley by the river - a hidden pocket amidst arid mountains majesty
of all the visions sacredity she said
'woman! get yourself to a computer and reminds the trouts how much you love them'
so here i am - here i be
about to leave maui
with darker skin and a belly full of fresh avocados, cherimoyas, and pineapple
telling you i love you.
i love you.

Alone time - the first thing that comes to mind, blessed space to be alone. without the rambling, whirring bumping and crashing, honking, sipping, splashing of everything.
It s sounds like you are doing exactly what you n eed to do to rejuvinate. even if im replying 2 weeks after you wrote this.
Love is all around, death is all around, we are but a blip on the scenic earth.
sometimes i think that the destruction to the earth by monsanto and his kin will only really devastate us (humans), we only worry about the next few generations suffering for it. but when we are all gone, earth will heal, at least i think so.
ah well, the trout house misses you, but i think we all want to be where you are, rather than bring you back.
Love and blessings
