I arrived with not a single penny, having followed the wild call of my heart to leave Mexico and go in search for healing the silent storms within me. As I slept under the trees and the open skies at the bottom of the sacred mountains with an opening of such trust in my being, a timeless memory stirred and began to awaken. In that moment of remembering the ancient gypsy nature of our spirits, wandering free from life to life this song was born. To look back now and see the moment of this song was the beginning of a long and winding path through the dark and magic territories of my being, the tears and screams, the awe and wonder, the breaking, the dying and rebirthing, the songs and dances, the learning and remembering, the freeing and opening of our dusty wings, the epic landscape that must be crossed as we cover the ground we call 'Healing'...

The music itself is nice but there are real people who are - and often in a derogatory way! - called 'Gypsies', more accurately Romani or Sinti, who are the subject of discrimination and have been for centuries. It really is cultural appropriation and disrespectful if you are taking this word to sing a song about a fantasy of being 'free' which really has very little to do with what these people have lived through and often still do. Please stop using this word to describe things that have absolutely nothing to do with it and while you are in no way sincerely relating to these people. 2021-04-17T19:45:51Z Comment by jamie of terra as many times as many worlds as it takes 2018-02-14T08:16:11Z Comment by Davor Vukovic a beautiful Gypsy soul, Ayla 2018-01-20T21:49:37Z
