Su Casa es Mi Casa… by maïa
Reversing that lovely Spanish gesture of hospitality, to this wanderer… your home is my home. Homeless by choice and not by chance, as so many sadly are in our world, in regard to any physical or emotional abode, I “have none, will travel.” As happens continually in this weird life I now live, I fell into house-sitting “by chance” a couple of years or so ago. A writer/philosopher, I’d given away all my worldly goods years earlier and went off to seek not my fortune, but some clue as to how this human race had become so inhumane. In the first years, I journeyed far and wide among some 36 or more of the continental U.S. and missed only 2 of our neighbor to the north’s provinces, putting over 63,000 miles on my little house on wheels, a 29’ Jayco RV.
At first, I was known to the new friends I made among this country’s indigenous people as, “No-Name-Yet,” since I’d left my old names behind along with everything else that connected me to my old material life. During a miraculously serendipitous side trip back to the Greek isle of Mykonos, my name finally found me and I’ve been “maïa” ever since. No capital letter, no last name. Just the Greek word/name, which means little mother, great mother, midwife and… witch. All of which seem to apply in one way or another! My prior life’s lifetime wealth of commercially-aimed writing projects left behind, I’d begun writing in an entirely different métier and “voice” after I left and the new name was truly fitting.
Tribal people call what I did, “going on a vision quest.”
