Thank you for capturing so beautifully the feelings that I cannot put into words! You are incredible. The analogy you drew between settlers and house guests was so well done. I never quite know what to comment because I feel that you've said so much of what needs to be said. You pose a difficult question: why do people feel a need to escape their conventionally comfortable lives? I think this is another indication that the conventional life is no longer the ideal life. Hope your tummy feels better soon!
"I wonder if, behind the groundedness, the calmness and meditation it bestills in my soul, if it was an artform stolen." After a few weeks of being in Peru we reached the most conflictive moment of the course (in personal terms). Sometimes I have the impression that we go through stages similar to those of grief. What strikes me most about your blog is that you capture very well a feeling common to all of us who come from Vancouver. Despite our different backgrounds and personal stories, we are going through a (little) crisis. (As you see I don't have clear answers either).
P.S. "I promised I would record a video of me playing at home." I can not wait to see it!
