The conundrum of the inner gypsy

These are not my pictures...All credit goes to the source, however the source is unknown.

The conundrum of living in a left brain world...... My dreams are filled with these amazing images yet my reality exists of something very different.  An outdated belief in necessity born from conditioning and fear that routine and safety comes before this impossible dream.  YET here I AM, selling my last remaining asset and choosing a life beyond the humdrum and the mundane.  Away from routine.  

Scary standing on the edge of society and trusting the process of life to provide everything we need. Freedom is scary if you are not prepared to accept the consequences..... Freedom is easier when your  just responsible for yourself, however I am responsible for the children I have brought into this world... Who am I to remove them from everything they know to fill their lives with uncertainty and adventure, with possibilities and challenges? Is it my job to expose them or is it my job to protect them and keep them from the world until they are old enough to seek themselves.  

Do criminals sub consciously create their criminal lives so they are imprisoned and kept from freedom, because they secretly feel safer in the prison environment? Do people who study in universities and then spend their whole lives working in institutions or universities find themselves feeling safer because they know the structure and environment and feel as if they have an element of control? Even if it is an illusory one........ 
I believe we are fundmentally creatures of habit, we have a tendency to cling and attach ourselves to things, people or places.  Its a way of feeling like we belong to a clan or tribe or community.  Is this a part of us that is reminiscent of our ancestors? Yet we learn our greatest lessons and often have the most amazing "aha" moments when we are removed from the mundane. When we are challenged, when all our senses are active and trying to make sense of the environment or place we find ourselves, we are trully alive and everything about us is buzzing and stimulated.  
Surely this is a better space for us to be in to learn?  
I read today that President Bush had never travelled out of first world countries before making presidency.  How can a man who is put in a position of power have so little wisdom?  Wisdom comes from experiences, understanding and compassion for diversity.  Knowledge can be learned, wisdom has to be experienced. Knowledge fuels the left brain, Experience fuels the right brain.  I feel as individuals we owe it to ourselves and the collective consciousness to balance ourselves and open ourselves up to the experiences to fuel and ignite the passion and creativity thats needed for us to evolve.  
Am I excited? YES! Am I scared? YES! I choose "LIFE" and I choose it for my children too!
