Savel Trafe

A few years back while in the UK, playing at Findhorn and St. James in London, one of us on the trip yelled out these words as we temporarily went our separate ways: "Savel Trafe"... of course she meant travel safe, but it has become an ongoing saying and appropriate as we head out across the country in the rv.
I let go of my condo in Santa Monica in October of 07, moved into a 32ft rv, and have since have been wondering why. Not that we haven't made some travels ~ going up north to get certified in living food nutrition at the Living Light Institute, spending three months at the Tree of Life in an organic gardening apprenticeship in Arizona, but continually being led back to LA... until the theme began to be, Escape from LA. We just couldn't seem to make the escape. Until now. Finally. :)
The trip really started on Wednesday night with Michael Beckwith and Rickie, and the Agape community www.agapelive.com . They will actually start live streaming of services this Sunday... sweet! I just stepped down as the director of the living food ministry there-- and also let them know at the prison I wouldn't be coming in to facilitate the weekly classes I had been for the last three years or so, for some time, who knows how long, since we're not sure how long we'll be out here on the road, or where we are headed for sure. It is the vision that came a long time ago-- living out on the road and being guided by Spirit.
The journey has begun.
After the service at Agape a friend invited me to a little gathering in Beverly HIlls.... I was tired, but was guided to go and it ended up being soooo sweet-- meeting a few new lovely beings, and on the way out given a sweet prayer/blessing by Dreaming Bear www.dreamingbear.net while we were all in a circle... what a send off~~
The next day we hit the road, having to drop off a few things with my daughters day, my ex, in Orange County. After our many years of dysfunction and confusion, we are coming to new levels of relating, loving, sharing and supporting. I am continually blown away by the power of love and forgiveness. A strong sense of completion and new beginnings....
We then finally made it out to the desert- Palm Springs- where I had to drop off a heater with my friend Randy. He had brought the heater down to my Long Beach apartment since the one there was broken, and when I let the place go a few months ago, put it in my car. Didn't want to tow a heater across country, and, it was quite a moment, knocking on the door, on a day that had been about 113 degrees, and his friend Christopher opening it, not knowing I was coming, looking at me, then at the heater, and me saying, ' I thought you would need this.'.
I was bummed to have missed Randy, but trusting all was in flow. Christopher has been going through a deep initiation with the sudden passing of his older brother (33), and gave me a bundle of sage to burn at an appropriate place, wishing his brother Richard good thoughts and savel trafes.
The adventure had begun.
I am planning to go to Taos, but the spirit guided me back to the Tree of Life for a few days first, so here I sit in the Patagonia RV park, getting ready to head up to brunch with John Phillips, and my Mum (see entry on Mum in this blog), who happens to be out from London/Budapest.
Shabbat was so sweet last night and it feels like I had only been gone a few days.
So, knowing this adventure is filled with delight and synchronistic divinity as we savel trafe across this country and find hidden nuggets of beauty, wonder, joy, freedom to share.... I know Life has it all planned out, all I have to do is listen and follow and go with the flow....
I am listening....
xxoo......the adventure continues.....xxoo
