Missing everyone's beautiful faces that greet me in my day to day. Its strange having no habits or routine now. Living literally day-to-day. However, I am finally feeling a lightness and giddiness as I shake off my possessions and obligations. Making room- I guess- for a 25 pound backpack.
I am watching my dog dreaming upside down on the bed, surrounded by piles of papers, toiletries, gadgets and clothes that I am getting ready to pack. I am an animal like him. We both come from the stars and dirt, we are both vulnerable and resilient. I ponder how it is, however, that I need so many objects in order to live day to day and he doesn't. I even have the advantage of opposable thumbs!
I have no answer. Yet one goal of my imminent journey is to feel more complete with the carry on luggage god gave me. (this body) Well, as of now, I have shed. .. (okay put in a shed and am paying $40 per month for) 95% of my objects and possessions. Lets see how this feels and lets see how I survive.
