For years now, my soul has yearned to leave this all behind; to pick up everything I have ever known and dropped it into the trash bin I call society and run into the forests, unabashed and unafraid. Nightly I dream of this life that begs every fiber of my being home, away from the city lights and into nature. I have wanted to make a safe place for people who share the same values of myself for years. Many call such places communes or intimate communities. As time passes, I feel more and more drawn to making this happen and putting things in motion.
I don't have any money right now, but in a few years that shouldn't be such a problem anymore. So for these next couple years I have time to make a concrete plan, a concrete foundation and philosophy of what I am doing. There are voices inside me trying to make me fearful of this. I know that these are not my own voices, but the feel of failure and alienation from the only society I have ever known, but even louder is my heart telling me I was born to do this, and to not be afraid.
To anyone who has taken this incredible leap, to anyone who knows the logistics, or the planning and the details involved, please offer me words of wisdom, advice, love, or all three. My mind is scared, but my soul is calm and tranquil with these thoughts. I just need help with planning. Thank you all and I love you all. <3
