Dear Caminoheads,

The littlest of the Volkers has arrived to the world. She doesn’t know it yet (but hopefully she senses) that she is so loved by a whole community spread in so many different places of this world since her grandfather, our fellow pilgrim Phil, told us the news of her arrival. All of us have been waiting for her arrival to rejoice at the sense of new life and promise her presence will restore at the Raven Ranch.

If there is something we are all aware of is that she has been blessed for having been born in a family who excel at hospitality, who master the act of sheltering, and are expert weavers of meaningful paths and stories.

And if there is something we would like her and her family to know is that she has a place in our lives, as they all have, that we are so grateful for her timely and safe arrival, and that our hearts are pumping love directed to Raven Ranch to wrap Rebecca, Wiley, Henna, Henna’s family and her, directing East too to reach Auntie Tessia and family, and directing up to hug our dear friend -her grandpa- Phil.

 

Welcome to this walk in life littlest of the Volker!!!

Your Caminoheads neighbors

 

 

Organdi (by Jorge Drexler, listen here: https://youtu.be/lumQhjoiYls )

Gale project,
the main protagonist of all my screens.
I don’t know where you come from
but from now on,
I’m going wherever you go.

 

Inevitably,
my absent heart weighs,
however inconsistent,
however fleeting it may be,
the most fleeting of your sadness.

 

Everything has been shocked.
There are things for which
one is never prepared.

The house started to shine
with this organdy love,
that is so delicate.

 

My dull heart
inevitably gives up,
it moves rhythmic to your swing,
it gets caught in
the perfumed weft of your nets.

 

I watch you sleep and I name you,
I look at you and I cannot give in my astonishment,
my breath spells you
for my heart to read you.
