I moved a couple months ago, and only now am I getting clarity about what the move has done to my lifestyle/head/heart. Could be months more of this "dawning." Spooky shit, let me tell ya.
Since my move, I now watch different TV shows, eat at different times than "normal," stopped eating certain foods, started eating others, am doing a lot more writing in non-spiritual topics, have several relationships that have changed dramatically, started putting some creativity into non-writing such as getting back into playing music, gave up activities that I thought I was "so into," got more social, have found happiness coming from left field, have found negativity coming from different trigger-points, and whereas I used to look out over a peaceful cove three steps from my window where dozens of species did life before me, now my view is of house tops and mostly sky, sky, and lots more sky. Did I mention Akhanda Mandala Karum? Sky! Watch out. I think it's the architectural stapatchavedaoogabooga monster having at me. Going from France to Spain -- oh fuck -- not me! That'd be like playing roulette bigtime -- I could end up being a Rush Limbaugh fan or something. It's like I was three years sitting in a chair in transcendence, and now, suddenly a thought comes. WTF? I'm thinking my move was a blessing for me in that the thought wasn't "Start a movement for Westerners!" Whew, that could have happened, and then what? The world may be able to stomach George Bush, it would puke at the sight of me in a dhoti! Counting new blessings here.
