In the Baja California desert of Mexico, a cactus tree stands beside my tent like a sentinel. I sit on a rock looking at the stars, wondering who has set the wheel of the sky in motion? Is the universe dancing in unison with a whirling dervish?
What are these lights? Is the sun shining on the night ocean, or the roof of a dark room has tiny holes in it?
How many stars can I fit into my pockets? Can I play marbles with them, or will I get blisters on my hands if I touch them?
You ask, "what is the purpose of this wandering?" How should I tell you that I am looking for the edge of the earth where the ocean drops like a giant waterfall into the dark void. I want to see how the universe looks like from there. I want to know if the emptiness in the universe is larger than the emptiness in my heart. I want to see the door where the souls of our beloved ones enter and depart.
You once told me that when a soul departs, it becomes a tiny dot in the sky. Is our planet also a departed soul in the scheme of the universe. Is it why we all are so restless on earth? Is it just my head spinning in circles and not the sky?
