Hello tribe, I am starting to look into where to live. I may have the possibility to buy something small soon. As far as America, Chatgpt tells me these places are my sweet spots: Olympic Peninsula, Washington - Sequim - Port Angeles Northern Colorado - Loveland - Fort Collins - Longmont Oregon Coast - Florence - New Port Northern California Redwood Coast - Arcata - Eureka For now I am leaving off the East Coast possibilities. Is anyone familiar with these areas? What can you suggest about them or other west coast areas? Also, does anyone know where I can do that test that tells you the best place for you to live geographically based on your birthday? I am open to the EU as well. Will be getting dual citizenship and was leaning towards Sardinia, Italy. Any other suggestions? I am looking for something that has nature and water (I prefer the ocean but will settle for other bodies of water) think Topanga, CA but does not need to be so close to city. Want to be semi-secluded but close to things. More of an artist community town feel. I have medical needs, which is why I may stay in the US before thinking of Italy (although once a resident in Italy, I can get similar care so you never know). If you were starting a whole new life, where would you go? Thanks in advance. 🙏

Sometimes a miracle unfolds not through grand events, but in a simple moment that unexpectedly opens a door to something words can barely contain. Today, I had the privilege of experiencing such a moment during a performance by Danny Diego at work. The room filled with music, with rhythms that invited people to move along, hum along, and lose themselves for a while in the joy of the moment. Among those present was a gentleman living with dementia, someone who navigates a reality where memories become increasingly difficult to hold on to and where the mind slowly lets go of what was once second nature. When I invited him to dance, I expected nothing extraordinary. We moved to the music, just as many others were doing. But after a few moments, something happened that deeply touched me. It was as if the music possessed a hidden key and opened a door that often remains closed to the outside world. His body visibly changed. His posture became straighter, his grip firmer. The uncertainty that so often surrounds him gave way to a natural strength. His feet effortlessly found the rhythm, and without hesitation, he began to lead the dance. At that moment, I no longer saw the man struggling with fading memories. I saw a man who had once danced for many years, probably with the woman he loved. I saw a man who knew how to lead, how to be present, how to guide a dance partner across the floor with elegance and confidence. What made it so remarkable was that this did not seem to arise from a conscious memory. It was not his mind that remembered. It was his body that knew exactly what to do. As if all those years of dancing had been stored deep within his being, beyond the reach of the disease. As the music continued to play, it became increasingly clear to me that there are forms of remembering that reach far deeper than words, names, or events. The body carries its own wisdom. It preserves movements, feelings, habits, and experiences that have been repeated so often that they become part of who a person is. There, in the middle of that dance, it seemed as though his body effortlessly remembered what his mind could no longer name. The melody had opened a pathway to a place where the disease was no longer the main character. A place where his essence was still fully present.
