rewilding


tell me how many times i must become wild again.


wild, directly from how i feel to how i speak & move, no taming in between. wild, from stories lived to stories shared, no distortion.


wild when pure.


i almost didnโ€™t come down here to mexico because my Dad got really sick & had to have surgery again. (heโ€™s doing much better now, recovering well ~ thank you everyone for your prayers & love & encouragement ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™).


after torturous deliberation, i flew into mexico city, arriving with Jonelle at night on July 29 for Carliโ€™s 4-day bachelorette fiesta, as planned for many months in advance. the girl pack in la Cuidad, a dream.


i didnโ€™t mean to buy my ticket back for september 7.


i thought it was for august 7 until i checked before i left.


i trusted: if i could swing it, i needed โ€” desired โ€” to stay in mexico for a month. my unconscious insisted.


friends like family & family agreed graciously & hugely to look after Peter, Roz, & Lady May Lynn while iโ€™m gone. THANK YOU Suzi, thank you Jill, thank you John, thank you Mom.


i coulda guessed, had i been wild & clear at the time, more rewilding was in order. more rewilding always is in order.


{my life: an evercontinuing cycle of becoming wild again}.


to rewild = to restore to its natural uncultivated state.


here i am at casa frida en san agostinillo, oaxaca, re-finding my natural uncultivated state.


i become wild again in so many places. in coming to know them, i remember myself. i remember wildness & wilderness, recording stories wildly.


โ€œwild: (of an animal or plant) LIVING or GROWING in the natural environment; not domesticated or cultivated.โ€


we found our way here to mazunte/san agos on a wild hare. as magically as i ended up here & as magical as my rewilding, may such magic my stories reflect.


i want to be a wild creature singing wild stories. not a trained performer reciting what i am supposed to say.


all this wild talk is to say:

the WILD BEAUTY OF literally just BEING YOURSELF.


muy sencillo.


for me it requires constant diligence, freeing the wild me.


con suerte, iโ€™ve discovered another destino maravilloso for re-release โ€ฆ
