I want to be free of all of the heaviness of my past, all of the anxiety of my future, and all of the constraints I have learned to wrap myself in like a funeral shroud. I believe in avenues that will help me grow and become freer. And yet. I struggle with imaginary chains too much.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I believe growth will come from following my bliss into my own adventure. I just bought the\u00a0Vintage, \u201867 Shasta Compact camper for this reason. It was delivered yesterday. The adventure is not going to happen on its own. I am making myself fully available to do this alone,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">with a friend,\u00a0<br>with a companion,\u00a0<br>\u2013 it doesn\u2019t matter \u2013\u00a0<br>I am doing this for me<br>and my own expansion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I know spiritual growth mostly happens through partnership. Unless you are a monastic monk high on a Tibetan mountain peak, the likelihood of having solo enlightenment is slim to none. Can you hear one hand clapping? I didn\u2019t think so. All signs point to an \u201cother\u201d who could trigger, push, upset, delight and force you up the spiral to your next level of growth. And freedom.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The candle is lit for the road open where my adventure awaits and the love I am opens to its fullest expression. So mote it be. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_0073.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"796\" data-attachment-id=\"22339\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.dangermond.org\/?attachment_id=22339\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_0073.jpg?fit=960%2C1195&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"960,1195\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_0073\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_0073.jpg?fit=640%2C796&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_0073-823x1024.jpg?resize=640%2C796&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-22339\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_0073.jpg?resize=823%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 823w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_0073.jpg?resize=241%2C300&amp;ssl=1 241w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_0073.jpg?resize=768%2C956&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_0073.jpg?w=960&amp;ssl=1 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Freedom.
