a world to love

THE PEACE OF WILD THINGS

When despair for the world grows in me
and I wake in the night at the least sound
in fear of what my life and my children's lives may be,
I go and lie down where the wood drake
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.
I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought
of grief. I come into the presence of still water.
And I feel above me the day-blind stars
waiting with their light. For a time
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.
— Wendell Berry

Risk

And then the day came,
when the risk
to remain tight
in a bud
was more painful
than the risk
it took

seven billion flowers walking without roots

I'm starting to wonder if I won't embrace a lifestyle of singledom by design.

It’s official: i’m going to sandbag myself against the idea that i need to find someone in order to be happy. I can live without hand-holding, dinner in dim lighting and make-up sex. I’ve finally acknowledged the divide that encourages me to believe that being uncoupled somehow translates into my being incomplete.

I intend to use this space and freedom to maintain peace and abundance in my life.

moats and boats and..

Doggie. This immediately made me think of you, warm weather, and cali-land.

I'm certain it will make you as melty as it did I.

....one day i'll whistle?!?

mon anniversaire

Usually, I wouldn't draw attention to something as self-serving as a "happy-birthday-to-me" post. But this isn't usually, I'm turning 24!
I'm having cupcakes for breakfast chased by a bottle of moet from bug. I'm having lunch with my father. I'm applying for a new home.
Cin Cin!



.... and if you're a fan of the roots or a good friend of mine you'll understand how much I love this song and why I just couldn't help myself.
