Karmic backbend

It's how I feel these days. My hands and mind are in Japan but my feet are still in Cambridge. Like I'm stretched around the globe. It's similar to how I felt when I came to England. But when I came to England it felt more like I was swimming through the ocean with very little to guide me. Like there was this little light of my soul in England and I needed to swim to it to be whole again. This time it feels graceful. There was a little fear in the beginning but after having visited in January all those fears evaporated. Japan just feels so right.

Some amazing synchronicities have been happening over the last couple weeks. Well my Japanese language teacher in Cambridge used to live in Tokyo. When I showed him the apartment that I wanted he was surprised because that was the street he used to live on. Well he checked his address and the apartments are 1 block (100 meters) away from each other. What are the chances of that. He knew the block very well and gave me lots of advice on the area. I've also seen pictures of the apartment today and it is everything that I had hoped for. The estate agent is going to see if we can apply for the apartment before I arrive.

So I'm basically ready to jump. My cat's relocation is sorted. I've almost got an apartment in Japan. I've nearly reduced my possessions to what will go with me. Just a few loose ends left. And of course I'm waiting for my work visa. That is the key. So here is to hoping and waiting. Good thing I like backbends since I might be here for a couple weeks waiting. Once the Visa is in hand I can kick over and plant my feet in Japan. But all I can do now is wait and continue tying up loose ends.
