the gypsies' journey...

we all are gypsies of a sort wandering traveling through this life other lives space and time here there and yon on roads less traveled - following the path of the sun and the trail of the stars to worlds known and unknown from yesterday and today into tomorrow -

this is a written and visual journal of my own travels - imagined and/or real -
imagined and/or real - a STREAMOFCONSCIOUSNESS telling of my own personal thoughts feelings experiences - interspersed with words and images of others - with things defined by most as PARAnormal which - for me - all my life - have been PERFECTLYnormal -

SO come along with me and we'll dance among the stars under the sun and over the moon - we'll share our stories around the campfire - together -

THE GYPSYWOMANWORLD

My photo
A...WOMAN IN MOTION WITH HAIR AS DARK AS NIGHT HER EYES WERE LIKE THAT OF A CAT IN THE DARK... SHE WAS A GYPSYWOMAN... she danced round and round... from the fire her face was all aglow... she was dancing... dancing... waiting for the RISING SUN... loving caring relationships are like THE RISING SUN...we are nourished by their warmth...we are energized by their strength...we grow in their light...we find shelter and solace there...they are our sanctuary... born in the sign of the sun, i am a true LEO-love the sun and its hot orange red fire-passionate in and about everything i do-i believe in instant chemistry charisma love/lust at first sight-in the magic of the eyes and the beauty of the soul-in the instant recognition familiarity in meeting someone from a past life and in the knowledge that we might meet in a future life-i believe that we are each ageless and flawless-i believe in the beauty of the moment-the whisper of yesterday-the hope of tomorrow-the power of forgiveness for even ourselves-the absolute and total beauty of love---[credit to brian hyland and curtis mayfield]

the mythic home...


"Knowledge does not enrich us; 
it removes us more and more 
from the 
mythic world 
in which we were 
once at home 
by right of birth."

Jung generally gets it right. Good food for thought.

Tess Kincaid said...

I loved your story about the first editions!!

We are all so removed from the land. Knowledge definitely gives us the reasons for our removal tendencies and more often these are intellectual meanderings from the head and not from the heart.

hey willow! yes - the first editions! good heavens, i thought i'd died and gone to bookheaven! and even felt guilty about buying them - i knew she had no idea - however, i also knew that she would not have cared had she known - she just wanted to "get rid of those old books"!!!

yes, susan deborah - you are so right - the thing of the head vs. the heart! i've always gone with my heart - for good or bad or indifferent - but it's MY way! thanks for coming by!
