Wanderlust

That's simultaneously both an exciting and a scary place to be - though if the name of the game is growing in consciousness, then the option-of-one soon becomes clear - and then it becomes a great place to be (IMHO and experience)   :)))
"how many times did you reinvent who you are to save yourself?"
... great question. Mary Oliver's "The Summer Day" and "The Journey" spring to mind again.

Thank you so much Josh for your thoughtful comments and the references to Mary Oliver both of which fit very much with what I was expressing  ... my wanderings have always been to find clarity in what life has brought to my door and for growth from that .. one thing I learned at a very young age is you can't run from yourself .. you can only grow and learn as you go .. and maybe find something that feels close to home...
Humbled and honored by the add to your RL

Brava, Jemac! I always have the nagging feeling I'm missing out...in most of my dreams I'm moving about. Rushing to who knows where.

Thank you so much Gahddess for your thoughtful comments .. yes,  even moving in dreams can be a profound experience

This has the feel of a forest creature...poised for flight...unsure of safety. Beautifully written and deeply felt

Thank you so much Willow for your beautiful comments .. greatly appreciated .. my sisters have called me a gypsy,  flower child and forest fairy ... ♡ x
