seems imPossible

i Am on vacation on the other side of the world

i Am sharing this experience with my Love and people i Hardly knew when i Was 38 (my 39th birthday was 3 days before this adventure started)

i Keep finding that my home is here, not because of any physical location but because of the acceptance of circumstances that has come from the view of paradise i Now see

a Part of that acceptance is that i Do not know how best to share mySelf with the world in a way that will be accepted but i Can still share and learn in the Process

with that in mind, i Recorded a poem about wHere i Am from titled "i Come from Kansas"

a friend i Had met through employment as a telesales person saw that video and requested that i Record and post a video of another poem about where i Am from titled "Son of Lawrence, KS" so the next morning i Set off to find the wRite Sight for such a recording

What i Came aCross was a magnificent building still under construction and when my Love Melody and i approached the WORK SITE we were greeted by the lovely smiling face of the owner and designer of the building Bunya. Bunya allowed us to photograph the site and then followed us and began to tell the story of her process of design and construction and how it had evolved as she gave us a tour of the place that would become her home (currently she lives in an 800yr old home in England). As Bunya left i Asked if i Could have her email so i Could send her some of the pictures and footage we took. She told me she would leave her card with her lead carpenter (a man who was doing all of the woodwork by hand and living onsite in a home he made).

After recording "Son of Lawrence, KS" Melody and i Went to thank Bunya's carpenter and retrieve her contact information and when he handed it to me i Read iT and almost melted in the tropical heat when i Saw her last name
