Portland is a magical vortex


Moving
Steady now
Steady now
Steady now
About one
Mile per hour
Mile per hour
Mile per hour
Upwards
Slow and steady
Slow and steady
Slow
And I've never been more
Touched by
Girls hands

Pretty little fingers
They will become the stars
The world is
A rolling stone
Simultaneously gathering and
Hunting
They will become the stars

THESE MAGIC MOMENTS

Living through music I guess you could say.

Its ridiculous how much I listen to music. I'm constantly singing,
lyrics always running through my mind, so much so that I'll be in
a car other than my own, or out somewhere with friends, at the
movies or whatever and I'll have moments where I'm wishing
that I was listening to a particular song instead of doing
whatever I'm doing. I guess you could call it obsessive but music
just means so much to me. Plain and simple. I get such a thrill
and so many emotions running through me when I listen to
songs that I love. I relate to them so much. I've had Algernon
Cadwallader songs playing in my head for the last three days, I
don't want it to end.

Feels like the next step is to start playing music.

Doubt, my usual downfall

The move to Portland is nearing closer and closer. Guess you could say that I'm nervous or apprehensive, but excited all the more. I had a dream last night that I gained about 30 pounds and had a big hump on my back. These feelings that I have are extra baggage, weighing me down.

I had this really awful feeling on Tuesday. Feelings of pain on my neck and shoulders and one sharp pain around my left hip. After I had a tough conversation that I had been avoiding all these pains went away, I felt lighter. Its amazing what the body can do. Now I have to have the conversation with myself. Get myself out of bed in the morning and outside, even though I think sleeping in is "luxurious" because I don't have any other obligations in the morning and I should "take advantage" of the extra sleep.

In the dream I had there was also a lot of swimming in pools. Its been on my mind. Its summer and I really enjoy swimming. Art will be posted later, I've been meaning to put some up.

like children with spongy bones, rubber band muscles and perfect posture.

Got my foot behind my head today. Yay for small accomplishments! I credit the amazing massage I enjoyed earlier in the day. Still haven't figured out the technique to balancing compass pose, but in due time, in due time. I give it a week! haha.

Been spending a lot of time quietly contemplating my existence and sweating buckets. Its been good.

The trip to San Francisco is nearing, March 10th you will come too soon! I am super stoked. Can't wait to have four days with beautiful faces surrounding me and ever more gorgeous hearts. I may not come back!

Focused

I can safely say that I am now completely single, no attachments.

It feels good. It took about a week of silence on my part to realize just how I feel as a person, and I need to improve on finding happiness and contentment within myself and not someone else. Especially if I'm not completely satisfied with the person I'm seeing. I'll find that puzzle piece one day.

Life Force

Always a fresh new breath of air unknown to my body every time I inhale.

And as I exhale collectively I expel the stagnant prana trapped within me, within us as a whole, bringing new life into each and every soul.
