Simplicity

I am back in the beloved mountains of Brazil. My boyfriend (and my horsefriend and catfriends) are living here, it is one of my homes. 

How many lifetimes have we lived like this?
Travelled on a horseback through the forests and the mountains. When the evening comes, making a fire to sit by. The starry sky; so mysterious, and so ancient familiar at the same time. Being at home in universe.

Remembering how small I am.

It is funny;
In the moment I am aware how unimportant I am – I relax.
In the moment I give up any hope or attempt to "be someone" – I am, myself.
In the moment I am not concerned about other peoples opinions about me – I can feel myself, I can trust myself.

I can trust my own voice. Like the bird trust its own song, its wings – and the winds carrying her.

That is the amazing support of nature, for anyone who wants to relax with oneself:
There is no-one there to judge you, to have any opinion about you, to like you or dislike you.
When there is no-one to play these "human games" with – no-one to impress, to seduce or compete with;

It happens, in some moments, I forget myself. I melt. I disappear.

Becoming One. With the birdsong. With the night sky. With the horse carrying me.

It is such a blessing, these small vast moments of god.
