You were raised with the rare experience of connecting with the primal, of being grateful for things that most take for granted. It makes sense that it feels natural to you to let go of the things that bind you, I think it a blessing! I think being able to reconnect with where you came from in that way where you live now is powerful and must feel so grounding.
I can relate to going through phases where dreams are so intense they feel more meaningful than reality! Life is too much sometimes, sometime we need to plan by going inward into our subconscious I think!
I find that when I get stressed I remember the little vacations we spent at my Grandpa's trailer in the Blue Ridge mountains. There was an outhouse since we slept in a tent, and we had to walk a mile to the bath house down the hill, where there was a small lake and a general store. I remember the peace and simplicity of that place a lot, and I only experienced it a few times, so I envy your ability to summon that feeling and be in contact with what really matters. 💗👏
