Aloha gentle listeners welcome to season two of Random Acts of Living, with me your hostess with the mostess Emillia Noordhoek!
It’s been a bit of a wild ride the past few months, when we last spoke I was just getting settled into my new place in Amsterdam exploring, getting my residency, I thought setting down roots in my ancestral home with my people, ah but it was not to be so easy.
My father passed away three weeks after my arrival and that loss was the icing on the proverbial cake as it was, shorn clear through it felt like sucker-punched in the stomach.. All that and more felt in the moment and it made me reconsider where I belong in this world and who belongs with/to me.
I was grateful for the past year and a half due to the pandemic that I was able to spend with my parents and know that we are complete in our connection and relationship to each other, we said the things that needed to be said and there was nothing left on that table except great love and to cherish the memories so I do and will continue to do so.
But, now, where do I belong??? Well first my heart shifted then I was able to shift my head, and then I knew that place called home and this is where I now speak to you from, my home, my heart, my whaling center, my Molokai.
Here is the story of getting from point A - Amsterdam to point M- Molokai with Iowa in between.
Mahalo for listening and if you are so inclined please leave a review and/or email me at randomactsofliving@gmail.com
