Alive
If she had to describe her teener years and early twenties, she would probably say it was a decade "of figuring everything out". Moving towards her mid-twenties and looking forward, the main feeling is one of longing to just feel good in her skin again. So many changes coupled with a radical emigration have left her wondering where home is. She is a sensible country girl at heart and looking back she realises the level of her naivety when she first set out on this wonderful adventure.
Her native land was often silent of voices and the mayhem of the inner city vibe. The sounds of babbling water and the chorus of birds soaring high above the fields and trees were her childhood backdrop.
These past few years were so filled with urban noise, she feels nature is far away. The need to retreat to the homeland and refresh her mind and body before the next step slowly grows within.
The appreciation of beauty takes practice. She knows that to really feel the vibrant outer world, she needs inner calm. This girl is ahead of the game; if she is to continue on this creative and ambitious path, she needs to recharge and tailor her body and mind for the new challenges ahead.
