signing off
comrades, this is my last post from south of the equator. i begin my journey home tomorrow at 3AM and will travel for over 20 hours. i am nervous and unsure how i will re-adjust and gather the pieces to commence, not a new, but from where i left off. traveling allows one to gather parts and assemble something that, eventually, begins to form that which the traveler him/herself desires to see when they peer into a mirror. we throw ourselves out into the unknown as a one would cast a net, that upon retrieving, the fibers from the waters will produce fodder with which we might feed ourselves and nourish our souls. we spread ourselves thin, lose pieces, blur the lines, translate into foreign in tongues and then re-translate into our own so that we might actually understand what we want, what we seek, what we desire, what we crave... we send postcards, letters, e-mails and posts (like this..?) so that upon re-entering what we consider the norm we might begin the construction of our desired self from the pieces and parts that litter our world.

ah, a new journey begins! to continue assimilating, re-assembling, a renewal of self. picking up where you left off, in the midst of change-- naturally! and through these recollections, feelings, develop perception, reflections, and the old becomes new. . .because you are-- a clarity composed of the densest confusion from the parts and pieces, of all the places and people and nature residing here, within you.
