She called to me from a valley afar,
and like a migrating bird
I flew.
To a place that gave warmth,
right through to my heart,
and to my soul, this songbird,
I knew.
Her heart song echoed the silent call,
that through muted voice
my soul yelled.
With her familiar song,
I found my wings,
Now together, these songbirds,
are held.
Sometimes I sit in complete wonder at where life has taken me in the past year, It feels like a homecoming in more ways than one, having come to a place of connection to the earth, and in my soul, back to a place of deep trust.
After the past few years of what felt like walking through fire, I now look out daily at the beauty of the beautiful corner of south west Wales. Hard to imagine that six months ago, my back still against the wall with the long haul of ill health, and refusing to become a slave to a system that was failing us and adding complete insult to my situation, I needed to take back my autonomy. I found myself in a place where my only compass was my soul and I knew something was coming up for me. As things crumbled away in one life, and trusting that was exactly where I needed to be, and by answering a call of pure resonance, I found myself starting a new life nearly 300 miles away with beautiful souls who felt like home.
So much gratitude to my beautiful soul sister, her bravery in making the call out, and the pure trust I put in making the journey because of the truth I felt in her words. Somebody too, who knew deeply, that we were entering a time where we have to completely trust and live by what feels right as human beings, each step of the way, one day at a time, taking back our power, we would find our way through this time of transformation in human evolution. As I opened my heart to a life moving towards community living and deeper connection to the land and our hearts, I felt with no doubt, I was taking steps into a life that aligned with who I was. A crazy gamble some may think, with little in the way of money, and trusting in a different kind of energy exchange. The green lights and synchronicity just reinforced the knowing feeling within, that this was not only a life I would imagine for myself, but a life that was a step closer to being true to me, to us all, as wild beings. Where everything that mattered came from the land and the love in our hearts. A home where we thrive in care and shared vision for a more beautiful world.
A new chapter in my life has begun. I made so many promises to myself, when I was in the depths of hell with my health in the latter half of 2020. When my deepest regrets were not fully living. Now here I am… and it’s time to honour that.
