"YOU ARE A SONG; A WISHED-FOR SONG."
Rumi
Who could you possibly become?
If you howled your humanness and fully inhabited yourself?
If you stepped onto the stage of full expression, what might be revealed?
THE WILD HUMAN SOUL LONGS TO FIND EXPRESSION THROUGH YOU.
To have a voice; to be seen and witnessed.
It would rather fail at living its own expressive life than live somebody else’s.
Through courageous self-expression we become more soulful human beings.
Incrementally we build and inhabit ourselves.
We become more fully human.
WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?
Too often we wander off into other people's stories.
You domesticate your wild soul to make it more palatable. You water it down and muzzle it.
In a world of productivity, perfectionism, replicability, mass production, predictability and commodification the wild human spirit is an endangered species.
As we destroy the outer wilderness the vital, mysterious and wild core of our individual selves is equally threatened.
Without it you live a secondhand life.
The human spirit begins to atrophy.
THIS IS FOR YOU IF:
YOU ARE A FERAL FOLLOWER.
You've jumped the gate or veered off the beaten track, feeling the tug of something you can't quite put your finger on.
You yearn for a life that feels deeper and more beautiful.
You hope that when you are on your deathbed you can look back and say:
I allowed life to flow through me. It didn't always do what I thought it would, or hoped it would, and that's what made it adventurous. It was mine, and not mine. It had heart. It was big and extraordinary in ways I could never have anticipated.
