When I'm stressed out, I can't breathe. It all makes perfect sense. One of our most basic functions is breathing. We don't think about it much until it becomes difficult. I've grown tired this week of the human race. I'm finding people to be lacking in grace, forgiveness, understanding and compassion. I'm disappointed to my [...]
Almost Friday. Each week like a bourbon splash or flirty fast wink. With more fodder for stories. This week a topper! I've written, set aside the words, written some more and ooooh, set it aside. Though in time, another day, without the need to watch my words so much, I'll encourage the transparent sparrow that [...]
“Wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving.” Kahil Gibran He had it right. Simple, true. I will remember that as I face the 'entitled' this day, the ones who push beyond fair measure. I will remember instead to lovingly stand my ground, say no where it is [...]
I have just a moment this evening as I've been on a tear....probably not uncharacteristic, but a tear for sure. When I see what needs to be done...with utter clarity, damn if I'm not unstoppable. I feel a bit like a canon in those moments...once shot from my chambers I'm unstoppable. My team knows this, [...]
It's a choice....falling in love. A choice. We choose. There has been a lot of underground movement occurring in my world of late...taking me away a bit from my writing, from the me I thought I was to whoever it is I am becoming. I'm 'in love' with arriving to new and better places....of consciousness, [...]
It's usually a sign. Something needs to go. Something. 'But what' you ask. 'But what? Won't my world come crashing down if I let go one leggo stick? Maybe. Or maybe you'll find a new supporting beam. 'Leggo my leggo' you protest! And boom, boom, boom.....a tumble goes that neat little world you kept yourself [...]
I've been out of my own pocket lately...diverted by a number of keen surprises, epiphanies of late really. My earlier surrender, post meltdown, catapulting me into new territory which has me both delighted and standing a bit quiet amidst the flurry of 'little me's' scurrying about, running around me in a smidge of a [...]
I have no need for TV...unless I need some comedy in my life.....though I suppose comedy is in the eye of the beholder. A rotten egg can be comical if you like watching things decompose, fall apart, turn green then grey. I guess that could be comical. I'm stretching here. The human race embarrasses me [...]
'Don't be afraid to be outrageous; the critics will shoot you down anyway.' Sir Laurence Olivier It's true....working to please the world will just get you in one mess a trouble. My best friend 2Lu, (who has a milestone birthday this very day), tells me often to not have expectations and I'll never be [...]
I've not been my writing self of late....and, my body is not my own.....someone has inhabited it I fear, temporarily for sure, but it does not feel my own. I move differently than I recall, I feel leaden heavy, as though someone poured cement down my throat while I slept and blew up my skin [...]
