Jenara, thank you for your valuable insight and perspective. I too crave time spent in ancient cultures where there is the awareness and appreciation for what is 'permanent' and transient. There is an underlying order or current as you say that creates an ease and connectedness to the land and tradition when I visit these places. I shed tears when on the coast in Fukuoka, for example. It releases the constiction in my chest and reharmonizes my breath. So grateful you are out there, sharing you wisdom.
Jenara, thank you for sharing your perspectives. I am also working to express the value of understanding complexity on behalf of Humanity and neurodiversity. We are all interconnected at the level of energy flows and the US has lost it's sense of interconnectivity with global perspectives. AI is being used to amplify the disconnections and destruction of the environment and it will take global efforts to nurture humanity beyond this tipping point. Take care and cultivate kindness wherever you are...together, we can trigger an avalanche of kindness and that will be through stories shared using technology and in personal connections.
I just got back from a month in Italy, living in my wife's hometown in the house she grew up. Since she couldn't stay the whole time I was on my own for a lot of it, which was part of the intention: To reconnect with self and to find something that I felt was missing internally.
I was very struck by what you wrote about the idea of a grid running underneath ancient cultures.
I absolutely felt something like that there. in connecting with the people in that community and with her family there is this incredible sense of continuity that I've never felt in my own life.
Even as an almost total outsider, barely speaking Italian, I could feel this flow and relax into it a little bit. The school of fishes feeling was there.
I hope you find either what you're looking for or something even better in your travels. I look forward to learning more about your work.
Jenara of course I’m excited for your travels, and also sad that you’re leaving!
We’ll miss you guys and look forward to swapping travel stories :-))
