Wander

I have come to a turning point
And yet I don't know what I am turning from
I walk in circles
and finding that I am getting nowhere at all
This endlessness
Thing nothingness
Is something more than meaning
I have no idea
of what to do
but I will do it all the same
I will walk and wander off
on this journey I have begun
I will wander into the mind
and wander into the soul
I will wander into the dark
and seek the treasures I will find there

What do you see yourself as if you lived in:

Ancient Egypt?
Ancient Greece?
In the Roman Empire?
In the Mayan culture?
In Medieval England?
In Paris during the French Revelution?
In the Viking Age?

I am looking at the Travel Channel from Greece? Megan I think, in the Globe Treker series...

The blue sea... Ah, just want to jump into it...

I wonder if that feeling has something to do with bridging the day and the future. Makes me think of taking a traced image and putting it onto another paper. We have the image, but we have yet to fill it in. . .
Something like that. I'm not sure if it makes any sense.

Good questions. Have you answered them? I love that series. I wish I had travel channel at home. That's the only channel I'd wish for. ;)

So how can we transform these feelings of confusion and not knowing, and what we do know into something creative? I think that would help both of us alot. Maybe even undo some of the frustration.

I think perhaps we should do something that has these feelings in them on Friday...

Not all of them...

But in Ancient Egypt I would definitely be a priestess of some sort. Maybe be a priestess of the cat goddess Bast...

In ancient Greek I would be listening to Socrates perhaps. And maybe be a general in the army of Alexander the Great.

In the Roman Empire I would be a noble woman in the time of either Hadrian or Marcus Aurelius, scheming and generally having a good life:)

In Mayan culture, I would be an ordinary woman, doing some kind of craft.

In Medieval England I would be a young man fighting some war coming from a peasant family.
And I would be a priestess in the earlier times of England, when Avalon and the Great Goddess was very much alive. I would be a priestess under the Lady of the Lake.

In Paris during the French Revolution I would try to stay away as much as possible from the killings. I would perhaps be a shoemaker, trying my best to stay away from conflict and just survive.

In the Viking Age I would be a woman living at the west coast, seeing Harald HÃ¥rfagre going through my little village talking about uniting the chieftains into one single kingdom under him.

In Norvegian Medieval times I would be a birkebeiner, fighting along side King Sverre.

Maybe...)))
