That sensational bluešŸ’™

My son says it’s the thing he misses… the blue and green. Living away from his home country Oz.

Of course we’re all visitors… first to Earth. Then our bodies… migrated from different parts around the globe.

My maternal grandparents came out on a ship… separate, my Grandmother with two tiny toddlers in tow.

They arrived in Sydney… and never left.

Losing their home country Ireland… Scotland became their adopted place. My son’s Irish friend told me the Glaswegian Irish are the most fiercely Irish of all.

I’ve been watching the series ā€˜Poldark’… an historical fiction set in the late 18th century.

The mid to late 18th century was agast with wars and cruelty… invasions and ruling classes. Revolutions and uprisings.

A lot of the poor folk (denied their human rights) apprehended by greedy, self serving overlords were shipped off to the colonies… stolen lands; leaving bloodshed, death and destruction in their wake.

We’re still dealing with the aftermath today.

My god… humans.

So many ā€˜solutions’… so many reasons and explanations fill our air space.

But it can be simple as… the Good Wolf and the Bad Wolf.

Which one do we choose?

Because we do choose.

I think back to my ancestors… what they endured… what led them to mount a sea faring vessel and hope they’d be taken to the bottom of the world.

To find… to escape… to add action to hope.

To dream and intend a better world for themselves.

We come on the shoulders of all these brave folk… fighting, planning, hoping… for the true way to reveal.

That flame… as tiny as it may be… the knowing, so sleepy, not quite awake. The courage to follow… the belief in yourself.

The call you hear… that one with a different tone. It reveals itself… like nothing else. You know… even when you think you don’t.

You say ā€œYesā€ā€¦ I trust you enough to take those first steps… wherever they lead.

A lot changes… then, nothing does.

The same cycle we spin around… until we say no more. We place our self in the equation… even just a little bit.

Then miracles are possible… they’re actually happening all the time.

We’re visitors here in this awe inspiring space… the Good Wolf and the Bad Wolf… which do we choose.

We do know what is real… what is true.
