Floating Through Space and Time


In a little more than eight hours I will be airborne, flying from home to the place of my birth. Nearly everything is packed; I just need to check my PO Box one last time and mail a letter. Sitting here with the mid-day news on the television, I am trying to identify the anxious feeling swimming through me.

I am confident I’ve taken care of everything I’ll need in England, while leaving my life here in Canada in order. Though I have some rehearsing to do, the speech I’ll give at Saturday’s memorial for my mother is ready. Heck, even the weather in England is sunny, rather than the rain falling just beyond the window.

When I toured the US west coast, I had a goal; ride south along the coast, from Spokane, WA to Terlingua, TX.

I also had a time commitment; I had to be back in Canada prior to heading to England for this weekend’s memorial. This time, however, once I get to England and begin riding I have no obligations, no commitments[except for the Bestival music festival Sept. 8-11 on the Isle of Wight].

As I’ve mentioned in a previous posting this lack of grounding is rather disorienting. Floating through time and space without a tether; such utter freedom–without controls, schedules or obligations–is like swimming in the middle of the ocean. It’s kinda scary but, as I’m coming to appreciate, as I shed this fear, the beauty of life is spread before me.

Let’s ride!!

    I think that slightly anxious feeling in your stomach is the same as that feeling you get with weightlessness at the very top of the hills onthe rollercoaster. It’s not that you have forgotten something or that there’s some task left to be done … it’s that you are so free that you are lighter than air …
