Home / Belonging

To become settled, first I have to unsettle

finding stillness and listen

being in reciprocity means

sharing gifts with the space

and build relationships

what can we do within the space we are in?

what responsibility do we have

to bring care

to the land?

Not only with humans

with non humans and non-living things too

the world has imagination

to belong is to be claimed

whose are you?

I belong to all things

I hold responsibility to the world

what is my responsibility

to my home?

what is my home?

moving is powerful

and disempowering

to be claimed

by the land

can I recognize when I am being scolded?

what does it mean for a facilitator

to find home?

finding is discovering

for myself

take off the layers of 

fictional identity.

salmon is people

trees are people

erratics are people

who recognize you

and we recognize them

those who can claim me

I cannot lie to them

I am true

belonging is 

being recognized

for a long time I aspired to invisibility

invisibility is the absence of responsibility

a true identity

finding home

is finding myself

I have been claimed by you

I can be me with you

home is a place where the naked me lives

and what is my role

what is my responsibility

to that place

what is my responsibility

to my children

to show them how rich life is

here in this place

to tell them how rich they are

to become themselves here?

creating home

is getting to know what is here

creating home 

is an act of love

towards what is here

home is participating
