Pues, today makes one year exactly that I left the US of A and moved to La M. To me, that is freedom.

Other freedoms that I enjoy here in La M?
1. The freedom to be me and not be judged for it. I have found La M gente, both Mexican and gringo, to be very accepting of me.

2. The freedom to live without rules. While a very few are needed in this life, I find most are superfluous, generated out of fear.

3. I have found that we here in La M accept each other with all of our foibles, more than any other place I've lived. This is a small pueblo. We see each other every day. We know we need to put aside differences and focus on the essential--that we are actually all in the same 'lancha', on the same journey.

That's all I feel like posting--for now.
