Meep meep

Wow, what a day to be a nomad. I love this image of the roadrunner. I used to call myself a road dog but I think roadrunner is a more apt description. I think I am more bird like than canine. According to Chinese astrology I am a rooster, unbeknownest to me for awhile, since I was born in 82 but in January and the Chinese new year is after my birthday.
Making my way from Austin to El Paso was a smooth ride. There were many signs along the way.
I love a good play on words.
 
Dead carcasses littered the highway. Vultures flew overhead. Waiting for death. Life was all around, birds, deer and me, I am there too. Uhauls on the road remind me I am not the only one in flux moving around.
 
I had so many cool moments today. At one point I was in deep coversation with my heart, asking it what it needs. Then I heard, it needs to be watered. At that precise moment when I heard that voice, I saw a green hose on the side of the road, it started to drizzle and a song by cat power was playing about the sky and water. It was a lovely synchronicity that made me feel loved. I had a similar experience years back on drugs. I guess I can be loved with or without drugs. Its nice to feel it, its probably around all the time, but today was heavy on it. I still feel unworthy a lot, but headed to a shred more worthy.
Then I hit a plateau for awhile. Followed by a lot of vastness.

Deer as a power animal stands for gentleness, unconditional love and kindness.
Then I got brought back to the 90's
Mexican hoodies.
Before I knew it was in El Paso, and I was tired of driving. So I got a hotel and I was so lazy I ate at the nearby restaurant, then I parked next to this Shwagon.
We used to drive a car just like this. What a day chock full of wonder, remnants from my past and I ate at Cracker Barrel y'all. I am not sure exactly whats happening to me, but I like it. Sending everyone love from the road. Meep Meep.
To Tuscon tomorrow.
