My time on the land was rejuvenating, refreshing, difficult, immense and poetic. I learned more than ever imagined. How to plant seeds and how to keep them going. How to maintain weeds, and how frustrating bugs really are. I learned what it means to be human and experience love and life within families which are not your own. I learned what life really is.
Now I sit and ponder my next bold move. Is it to stay and make a difference in a town which drives me mad? Is it to run to the next town and fix whatever problems I can there. Is it to head off into the wilderness and fix the only problems I really know how? (the ones within myself) ? Where do the answers lie and within what questions do we focus our energy?
I have landed here again for reasons which are making themselves clear as each moment passes. It feels like it was just yesterday I was sitting in this same seat imagining the possibilities of the summer. Now as the summer hits her most fruitful moments and begins to wane I wonder the same things as I did then. Only this time I have something under my belt. I see a little more clearly and i have a little more understanding. I am ready to move forward.
