From July 12, 2012:
I am in love with the rainforest. I have been home for a little over a week now
and the serenity of Luna Lodge still lingers. I am so grateful to have been
there with the amazing Libby, Raphaela, Katya, Tim, Lana, Gary, Edwin, Sandeep,
and the other guests who were in and out of the Lodge during our special week.
I am already looking forward to being there again; in the wild lushness, and life-filled
jungle. The ocean beckons, the Scarlet Macaws screech with zeal (& always
flying in pairs), Howler monkeys growl at sunrise, and, “Hola!” is called as we
greet one another as old friends. We are all together, humans, animals, trees,
ocean, sky, sun, moon, and stars. It is a sanctuary of peace and it feels like
home from the moment of arrival! I long for my tropical soul-place, where I
found inspiration – and I finally started writing that book I’ve thought about
forever – 5 chapter headings, and three chapter outlines done. And it seemed so
easy …
Wild green lushness,
tender beneath
Howling, screeching, and calling my name
Asana, ocean,
sky, sun, moon, stars
Writing the book
that’s allowed to come forth.

Practicing, walking, and writing some more.
Here seems forever,
time leads to each breath.

Swimming in silence
awakened from sleep.
