I' ve searched the deserts
of the land of pain
and I've found no answers
but mirages of illusion.
I've talked to the mountains
of despair
and their response was just
the dull echo of my voice.

We're working for a strange goal
We're turning flesh and body
Into soul "

From Finisterre to the Highlands there is an invisible "patria", a magical homeland: the Celtic coastal perimeter that threads through Galicia, Brittany, Wales, Ireland and Scotland... 🐚 ✨

Are we all part of an endless chain (not-so-discreetly) living out the dreams that once had to be tucked away?

And in that generational chain, is there a way to retroactively tuck in the childhoods that hid their dreams under beds with lanterns?

Happy Birthday, mama!🎈🎈

"We've left Letting Go Island behind",said the Captain.
"Ahead of us lies our destiny: Surrender Island. A tax-free place where there's really nothing you can do but to stay put,
as cozy as you can, while the roulette wheel spins again"

Put on a sitcom and stare at my toes
I've had enough of today's emotions”
