What being in the jungle means

To enter into the maya jungle is more than just an activity, it is a journey.

There is a profound and intricate process that occurs when you genuinely open yourself to the wonders of nature. The boundaries of your periphery grow outward, expanding as you attune yourself to the rhythm of life that surrounds you. Each delicate cricket chirp and excited bird call gently draws you further out of yourself and deeper into the captivating vortex of existence.

A rainforest, in its complexity, is deceptively enchanting. It can be all too easy to pass your eye over its surface and mistakenly perceive it as a uniform creature. Yet, it is instead a breathing, fighting, pulsing web of interdependent life. This vibrant ecosystem doesn’t conform to boundaries or the dualities often imposed by human thought; it does not respect our inherent impulses to contain, contract, and isolate. Each individual piece forms an essential part of the whole, and this whole relies entirely on the delicate interplay of each interconnected piece. The rainforest contains multitudes, embodying forces that are both intimidatingly strong and subtly fragile, reminding us of the intricate balance that sustains it all.

For me, it is my home.

Because I’m a fairy.
