When you travel in Colombia, watch out that you don’t turn into a Papaya tree. Papaya trees are amazing, once they start bearing fruit, they never stop. Year round. For the rest of their lives. 

The problem is that other people will eat the fruit, the tree itself just has to keep on giving.

This was a warning I got from my new friends in my first week in Cali. I wrote the song one night after 4 hours of sleep on a Banana ‘mattress’ and it’s mostly made up of phrases I learned from “Super Holly” a YouTuber with an amazing channel that teaches Spanish to English speakers and English to Spanish speakers. My Colombian friends approved, so here is my song. 


Please note that I am still struggling with ordering a meal in a restaurant or asking for directions.
 But I know not to give Papaya to those who expect me to grow roots and turn into a tree.

Chevere, no dar papaya!

to be sparing of speech Is natural - LaoTzu - TaoTeChing

The religious has no meaning when pushed into a corner.
Then {you} will behave exactly like everyone else. 
So this culture, your values, religious or otherwise
haven't touched a bit there.

Wanting to change your material life into that so-called religious pattern given to you, is destroying the possibility of your living in harmony and accepting the reality of this material world exactly the way it is.

You can have the courage to climb mountains, swim the lakes, go on a raft to the other side of the Pacific Ocean. That any fool can do. But the courage to be on your own, to stand on your own two solid feet, is something which cannot be given by somebody.

Cutting Through Spiritual Materialism

The Shakuhachi has a way of calming my thoughts and releasing tension at the end of the day. Practicing commitment. Being faithful to a melody, a scent or a rhythm can be a challenge when the world is so full of wonder.

The Psychology Of Man's Possible Evolution

Sid Harter wants to learn to breathe without thinking. 
He spent a few years sitting under the Bodhi tree.
Sometimes meditating, sometimes not so much.
Sid is contemplating to cut out the amber nectar 
in favor of a healthy helping of fresh goats milk. 
He procures flowers and herbs along his way.
Sid Harter does not have a message or advice.
Except maybe that: To be is to do. Do be do be do.
