Today i set off from johnson city and back on the road. I am getting a ride From door to door again without having to stick out my thumb. :) Bruce was going to give me a ride half way but it turns out one of his friends has to go to knoxville to get his dog so i am along for the ride. I cam to the library to try to get a couch and i was mail bombing everyone in Knoxville with a couch i got a text message from one of those i had previously emaioled - and i have a place to stay! :) I am so grateful for the ease of this trip and the awesome people i have met and will continue to meet along the way.
Transition has been hard for me - but today I made sure i went through all my stuff - organized - and made my self feel safe secure balanced and ready for whatever my trip brings. Being in Odessas house i let myself get a little unbblanaced - missing my headlamp - my pocket knife - my pjs. I like to be unattached to possesions but when you are traveling with so little there are essantials to keep you balanced. I can deal with whatever objects flow in or out but i really am grateful for my pocket knife and headlamp. Those things are awesome - and the pocket knife makes me feel like a warrior and outdoorsman. I feel really aweosome when i am tying knots with my teeth while cutting rope with my pocket knife. So i found everything - put them in new ziplock bagggys - and i feel good and ready and excited. I am longing for community - soon - but exploring knoxville can't hurt and id also like to try couch surfing - get to meet people - have some touristy fun so this will be awesome and will open new doors. I like new doors. ( glen if u ever read this blog know that rereading it i am thinking of u because this bl;og is awesomely inundated with the word awesome! - thats f***ing awesome!!! )
It was definitly time to leave odessas- i did what i could - I feel at some point i started trying to give more of myself then it was fair of me to offer. I have to stay blanced and happy if i want to be of any service - not get sucked in - and when u get pissed off when u here a 3 year old whine for watermelon one to many times its time to move on. I am going to come back and -lpay with them again i know - but for now i have to move on - get stronger - here some country music - and come back for the storytelling festival and some sage rain hugs!!
On the road agaaaiiiinnnn ...........
