There's a beautiful depth to your writing. After all the chaos, I'm really glad you've found a peaceful pad to rest, where the noise can't reach you. It sounds like you're exactly where you need to be right now, just reflecting between chapters.
Thanks for sharing Jay, love the simple quality of being that you have captured: noticing the unexpected, minor details, the chanting guttural frogs, can enliven us, all things can become a mindfulness bell, the melancholy crow caw, the digital sting of a ding:
can these bells of awareness create a space, open us up to deeper rhythms, echos calling us to participate, protect, becoming a elemental whisperer for -our natural world?
the bigger patters that embrace us flow through us, interstitial fluids cleansing our sediments of respiration, asking us for full embodiment, with loving awareness & clarity, to see our living world, to not be in denial, or look away, and numb, sun our light, and sense the slow death of all natural living systems:
That reminds me of Tom Robbins book: 'Half asleep in frog's pyjamas:'
Let's not sleep walk within a mental fog, a dash of distractions, the dull thud of our nervous systems are also in stressful decline!
Let's join all our social Kermit's with our inner hermit- and create a choir of compassionate action !
Well JG, maybe, someday, you WILL find it – whatever "your" connection might be.
Some of us search forever, never finding.
Some search and eventually do find (or at least, think they have).
And others are not searching at all, content with what they have and accepting of where they are in life.
You, my old compadre, are at least aware of and have the capability to search, so whether you "find" anything is maybe a moot point, given the very journey you've been on, not only recently but in those "tinsel town" days, might be your own, personal rainbow 🌈
Have you been half asleep, or have you heard voices?
I'll wager there have been many voices over the years, but right now, the chorus of frogs and the scene you described in your latest post seems to be a very nice place to be, right now 🐸

Beautiful. Thanks Nick. 🙏🏻
I saw a new frog here in dads garden the other day. Still cool & rainy in mid November 🌦🐸
You’re making me travel sick. Keep inspiring matey.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts, it prompts me to self relect.

Travel well and safely 🙂
Nicely put, Greg. I’ll keep chasing those rainbows, even if they vanish the second I approach. The fun’s in the chase anyway. 🙏🏻
