Heaven on Earth

“It’s dark because you are trying too hard. Lightly child, lightly. Learn to do everything lightly. Yes, feel lightly even though you’re feeling deeply. Just lightly let things happen and lightly cope with them. I was so preposterously serious in those days, such a humorless little prig. Lightly, lightly – it’s the best advice ever given me. When it comes to dying even. Nothing ponderous, or portentous, or emphatic. No rhetoric, no tremolos, no self conscious persona putting on its celebrated imitation of Christ or Little Nell. And of course, no theology, no metaphysics. Just the fact of dying and the fact of the clear light. So throw away your baggage and go forward. There are quicksands all about you, sucking at your feet, trying to suck you down into fear and self-pity and despair. That’s why you must walk so lightly. Lightly my darling, on tiptoes and no luggage, not even a sponge bag, completely unencumbered.”
— Aldous Huxley, "Island" 

My favorite form of travel

"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime."

~ Mark Twain

I'm headed to Bogota, Colombia today.
I wish I was driving this:

Amazings and thank you's

Do you know what is amazing?
I have donors.

These beautiful people:

Thank you for your belief, some days it's the only thing that keeps me going, the reminder that other people believe in me and my project.

And the money helps out, A LOT, like really a lot a lot. You people help keep me safe, sheltered, fed, happy, and moving and I just thank you for it.

If you want to be a donor you can, just look to your right, and you'll see this, click the "donate" button and we are almost there!

Thank you!

For some time now I've been firmly engrossed with the latitude of my life.
I am going deep and going South.
The view is stunning from here.

I've been to busy with faces like these:

Thoughts like these:

Moments like these:

Dancers like this:

 And my own personal moments of bliss:
