the rambler
So next Thursday, I will have been in Costa Rica for 5 months. It really doesn't feel that long, but slowly it will as everyone that I love who made it out here with me is leaving or has already left. sounds sad, but I am drawn to this place in a way I can't explain. The people have made it my home, the language, the music, the musicians, the culture, the lust green vegetation, the rainforest, the food, the rain,the sunshine and the mountains I see in every direction I look.
I wonder if I have changed from this journey or if I will feel like the same person I did before when I return.. I feel different. Some who have came and went say I have growen and these dreadlocks I hold add to that growth and i'd imagine my banjo written songs have lifted my spirits to ridiculous heights. I guess time will tell..all i know is that there is respect, love and support floating across the ocean from home, picking up in a tropical breeze that blows right into my lungs everyday and without that, I would just be one little lost white girl.
These are some lyrics I wrote to a new song and I should also mention that it was partly written by Tyler Jackson who was rambling some crazy poetry one night and spit out something really beautiful without realizing it.
"I am swimming in the sea
sinking in sky
I got wings made of leaves
and a beak made of lies
And everytime that I swallow
thee Atlantic ocean
I realize again
that my life is a notion
I am swimming in the sea
sinking in the sky
I got love in my kness
and peace on my mind
and everytime that i follow
thee Atlantic ocean
I realize again
that my life is a notion"
Notion: A belief or opinion. A mental image or representation; an idea or conception. The reflection in the mind of real objects and phonomena in their essential features and relations. It has scope and content.
I would appreciate it if anybody would like to leave their comments on how they interpret these lyrics, particularly the last line "my life is a notion" as this word is new to me and i'm trying to understand what my subconcious was talking about when I wrote this.
thanks for listening..........buenes noches .. goodnight.........wuv muchly
