i think of simon & garfunkel when i hear the phrase, "homeward bound". when i was a kid & heard that song, i thought of traveling towards a building where my things were. now when i think of homeward bound, i think of the space in my heart that opens when i listen to nick drake's "pink moon". or the place that tingles after i meditate. or the place that allows all feelings to play through after i make the right decision, no matter how difficult.
tonight, i'm homeward bound in all meanings of the world. i've been working my butt off at various acting jobs, teaching yoga, booking a benefit music show, practicing with our new band "the tiny bones" & even more. i'm so good at being busy. tonight, i like being good at staying home.
i'm soaking my feet in a giant soup pot of warm water and chamomile oil, after i steamed my face in the calming concoction. i'm tidying up, cooking, relaxing.
honestly, once i recently made a huge, difficult leap in the right life direction, my heart feels lighter and i want to be more still. it's nice! i hope to always make the wisest decision, especially if it calms me down enough to where i want to be home listening to music and painting my toe nails. nice!
