Words about me from people I loveAugust 19, 2009
My friend. I am thankful she has found me interesting enough to be friends. She's walking her own path, rather, she's carving a new path, spreading light and wisdom along the way. Many will follow this new path, and continue the legacy she has already begun. She is unafraid to be the only one with an opposing opinion, and *express* it. She is warmly attentive to those she considers friends, and it's genuine. I feel her unconditional, fierce loyalty from the other side of the Earth.
She's funny, almost dangerously witty...you have to be on your A game to see the humor behind the cerebral words of wisdom. She's kind. Encouraging, and finds the good in people until she's given a reason to believe, otherwise. I just adore her. She's a breath of fresh air, like spring rain cleans the air...nice and clean and refreshing. Nothing compares to her, and that's why I love her! August 1, 2009

Astrid says what she thinks, no holds barred.
She's well informed, witty, and forever ready to jump dead center on false assumptions. She will make you think.

I just checked out Astrid's Aala Dameeti performance part 1 and 2 and I love the way she has her own style and interprets the music. She's very womanly and sensual and-it sounds corny-but after watching the videos I actually had a tear. The Japanese people there seem so appreciative of her sharing her art-it's intimate and heartening. Belly dance used to be this way a lot, each woman her own style, a lot now, too much alike. The music is very nice as well.
Keep on dancin' Astrid!

"If you were a weed...
which weed would you be?" I was asked today on the Herbal wisdom tribe. What came to mind was this simple German wildflower growing in the forests...Anemone nemorosa.

high definition photos of the destroyed nuclear reactors in Fukushima. You can see what a total mess this place is, it looks like something that's been bombed, almost, with a bit of smoke rising from the ruins...

500.000 people losing their home being just one of them... Sometimes I wonder why some friends are so completely oblivious to what is going on here. And now we have a plutonium leak. english.aljazeera.net/news/as...618.html

Reactor 1 - 58 degrees Reactor 2 - 35 degrees Reactor 3 - 62 degrees Reactor 4 - 42 degrees Reactor 5 - 24 degrees Reactor 6 - 25 degrees. The temperature above the containment vessel itself of Reactor 3 is 128 degrees, but this is not cause for concern, he says. .blogs.aljazeera.net/live/asi...-march-21 >like<
And now we have George Clooney making love to Jennifer Lopez in a hot scene with an inserted announcement that there is another 4.6 quake in Tohoku.....Do you enjoy Japanese tv? *$%&

about me
Who Says Words With My Mouth?
All day I think about it, then at night I say it. Where did I come from, and what am I supposed to be doing? I have no idea. My soul is from elsewhere, I'm sure of that, and I intend to end up there. This drunkenness began in some other tavern. When I get back around to that place, I'll be completely sober. Meanwhile, I'm like a bird from another continent, sitting in this aviary. The day is coming when I fly off, but who is it now in my ear who hears my voice? Who says words with my mouth? Who looks out with my eyes? What is the soul? I cannot stop asking. If I could taste one sip of an answer, I could break out of this prison for drunks. I didn't come here of my own accord, and I can't leave that way. Whoever brought me here will have to take me home. This poetry, I never know what I'm going to say. I don't plan it. When I'm outside the saying of it, I get very quiet and rarely speak at all. From The Essential Rumi, page 2.
