The Purpose of Going Out is Coming Back

I recently returned from three rich days facilitating a wilderness ceremony/rite-of-passage for a young man. But as we say, the purpose of going out is to come backโ€”to return more aligned to community with one’s unique gifts and love as medicine for your people.

KEEP WALKING, VISIBLE ONE

We say that the purpose of going out is to come back. We cross the threshold and go on the sacred mountain or desert, not to escape, but to claim who we really are, to embody our wholeness, and to bring back the medicine that the world needs.

WHAT IS YOUR NICHE IN THE ECOSYSTEM OF HEALING AND JUSTICE?

This is a question I am living now.

โ€œWhere your soulโ€™s gift and your positionality (dynamic social location of power + privilege) meet is your ecological niche for a hungry world.”

This beautiful & dangerous call by Pinar Sinopoulus-Lloyd (@queerquechua) of @queernature has been swimming through the river canyons of my psyche as I feel the complex emoting of a world confronting multiple intersecting crises: ecological, social, and spiritual.

THANK YOU ALL FOR SHOWING UP AND SHINING YOUR LIGHT

Thank you wild nature hearts for all you do! Thank you for showing with your gigantic hearts and medicine.
