I also took off, without a home, for several years. At one point I did rent a place for a bit, but it was while I was en route to somewhere else. I'd joke that I was homeless. And it made people incredibly uncomfortable. I've often wondered what exactly was their discomfort? Why not be curious? Why not explore an interesting story of how I came to this place?

Wow, Navyo—you truly are a free spirit! Thank you for modeling what you preach and inspiring us to do the same.

You *must* watch "Nomadland" if you haven't already. It is the embodiment of everything you've written here.

Hello Navyo… my journey has been living a lifetime of trust in myself and in grace. The choices made have been unconventional such as defending truth and becoming one with strength in solitude at times… it is an evolution in grace worth participating in my life journey. Blessings to you soul family!

Hi Navyo, I live in a similar fashion - no job, no savings, few possessions, no home, no income and I too have felt the ire of those around me. My family no longer talks to me because during Covid their insistence on me taking the clot shot required some push back - they didn’t like that. Just the other day my landlady informed me she wants me to vacate the room I was staying in because [insert reason]. It’s not the first time this has happened, they just make something up, in her case it was the lie that she has family coming - the actual reason is as you outlined - I threaten them. I don’t watch TV, I don’t really do chit chat (although I try for their sake), I’m quiet and peaceful, preferring to spend my days writing, reading and going for walks. This is intolerable to the normies. How dare he never complain!

I really resonated with what you wrote - so much so that my girlfriend actually sent this to me with the comment “did you write this?” It’s nice to hear from a fellow fearless traveller. DB

Hello, Navyo. I have begun a very similar journey. It began with the 'injection-rejection' that cost me my job. Now I have moved into trust-falling into the Universe. Letting go of fear and the other baggage emotional and physical has brought me lightness in mind and body as my Spirit begins to more fully express without the old frictions of anger, resentment, etc.

I agree that this time of covid has been a huge kick in our butts to the truth of the inhuman and corrupt nature of the entire social construct we are born into. What a huge spiritual opportunity to be change in ourselves and in the small and big communities we inhabit. We are a living embodiment of Arjuna in the Bhagavad Gita. Amazing. I feel honoured to be with Arjuna, seeking the truth.

I know you a lot better now! You are daring indeed, and I am eager to know how it is possible to live in abundance without a home, car, etc. Is this the subject of one of your books?
