Breathe...
Categorized under Blogando | Tags:
IT WILL BE LIGHT BLOGGING for a few. I have to lean into the article I'm writing for Chican@ Art Mag, and I have a few other things to get to. But I'll be back and writing way too much for anyone to keep up with, so no fear.
I see some peeps getting stressed. I see some others trying to sum up not only their own gig, but everyone else's. I see some burnout in a few sectors. I think a number of people are feeling tense. Online and in everyday life. I would just send out a soothing vibe if I could. It's Winter. I don't know about you, but Winter tests me. And it's not only Winter—it's a Bush Winter, okay? 'Nuff said. It's the end of the year. And all that junk. All that emotion, all that fear of dying, all that fear of not having lived a lustrous year, fear that time is slipping by so quick, and all the other shades of blue that come with the dusking del año.
Everything from the particle wave to the seasons to the day is a cycle. Ebb and flow. It's going to be all right. It is all right. We're just riding up on the other side. As someone has said, wear the world like a loose garment. The past? The future? Another's judgment? What something might have meant? Turning it over and over like a time-release castle-for-rent? All just shapes of clay, water, paint. Not concrete. Moments as amber sunrays slivered free from a ticking peach tree. In an orchard of ten million. Summer wind curling up under the sparkling brim. Taste of a sweet kiss still lingering on the lips. One tiny moment, right here between our fingertips. Deep breath. Don't forget to laugh!
See you in the morning, beautiful.

You said it all.
I hope you are still working on that RSS-feed directly to my brain idea...(you know, in all your free time)

Whew, I needed that. Being alive is gift enough. Even if it's a boring day. Because someone still loves you, loves the smell of your skin and is grateful for the gift of you.
At least that's what gets me through the day and sometimes it's a really long day.

yeah...you said it well, leesee. we get excited and serious about so much. and i think we ought to...passion is life! but for myself, i have to reel myself back in sometimes...or let myself drift, or coast, or breathe. whatever the metaphor, i have to remember just what a gift the simple fact that i am alive, can breathe, can smile, can feel, can walk the earth is. not everyone has that gift. and one day, i will not either. today, i take it out and turn it over and am grateful for it.
tomorrow i'll get back to bitchin that it ain't exactly my size or favorite color. :)
