I love this story - what a beautiful tale of layered reciprocity. Thank You for sharing. I also feel so much resonance with your embodied reflections about the ways we process reciprocity. Sometimes this does express as our actual bodies or our emotional language receiving the density of our Whole reality and moving it INTO our lived experience of self. As an herbalist and a mystic I certainly prefer the more holistic approach to healing - yet recently I have come to SEE that my life isn't so much about healing as it is Whole-ing. Being Whole. Feeling the Wholeness of Life. Understanding that there are cycles and spirals and symbiotic relationships. I cannot avoid moments of grief and illness - moments that become part of my Wholeness. And my thoughts and my intentions and my manifestations are not the key to my immortal vitality. How I choose to navigate this world matters deeply, certainly influences reality - AND I am part of a Whole ecology. With so many ingredients that I have no choice in. Thank You Thank You for your wisdom -
Rhiannon, your post makes my heart glad. It's wonderful for my words to be received with such a thoughtful reflection. Being such a personal writer, I feel like you are receiving me, something I really need in a world where I often feel misunderstood. The more I fully express my inner life, the less isolated I feel, even without hearing from others how they receive my words, but I have to say your comment makes me feel much less isolated! Thank you.
I am loving the way you steward story and weave your humanness INTO the wisdom shared. I feel nourished by the rich texture of your expression. Each of us, in our Wholeness, emanates an essence - a unique resonance, a harmonic frequency - and those who FEEL the tune of our truth weave symbiotically into the reciprocity of the stories we steward. The lessons, the learnings, the honesty of being. I appreciate your Wholeness and the way your Essence is beaming a kindred resonance.
Jennifer, there's an event at Tiki Mama's on the 21st, Sunday, I invite you to spend the whole day down here with me and safely sleep over after the dance. I will try to show you a full Ka'u experience!

I enjoyed reading and reflecting with you.

It's been quite a journey to get to this point. I had to shed a lot of patriarchal conditioning I picked up in academia. Thank you!

Jennifer, I was more interested in your prelude than the story...perhaps we do need another encounter? Do you ever drive South?
I haven’t in a while but I want to. I’ll let you know if I venture south. And thanks for reading!
No huhu, let me know if you are coming! The river keeps flowing whether we embark or not!
