My Blog

I'm only into this to enjoy.

Spring is my season. I feel like I am on the verge of bursting into bloom... like the hawthorne tree that is budding beautifully out in the garden (there's a reason why they call it the mayflower tree! Give it another three days of warm weather and I'll bet you by the end of the first week of May it will be gorgeous).

I have so much energy inside of me... everywhere I go I'm looking for ways to pour it out into the world. Most of it is positive energy... the giddyness of springtime, the build up of sensuality and excitement that comes with the warm weather, the anticipation of so many incredible opportunities and meetings and fun times... But there's also a touch of anger, frustration, and self-destructiveness (word?) in there too. You know, the kind that makes me want to sell my car, buy a motorcycle and ride it really fucking fast.

I wish I were an artist, so that I could channel it into something tangible.... but I'm not. So I hoop, I dance, I furiously tear up the earth with a garden hoe... and I find myself, at times like this, craving physical touch... like I could lay my hands on you and give to you a taste of the river rushing through me.

I imagine I have magical glowing fairy dust coming from my pores, and that if I could just get close enough to press my skin against yours, you'd start to glow too.

Awww I love it! I feel the same way! I get mad that I am not an artist either. I hoop, dance, do photography, and try to get out there to walk my dog as much as possible. I hope I get to see you at PDF and give you a big hug full of the energy we are emmitting into the world currently.

You words are awesome and beautiful and totally explain how i feel btw. :)

Very beautiful.. And I think, like a true artist, never satisfied. But that gives a certain motivation to advance and grow and find new ways to express yourself. I think that you're more of an artist than you think.. I can feel it in your passion for all things that you do. You may not be creating monumental works of art but your medium is more subtle and certainly no easier to master. Your medium is Life.. and I've never met someone so skilled at working with it before.

You are beautiful, inside and out.

...and I'm not entirely sure that you don't exude magical fairy dust:)

Marlenah, you do make me glow. Your love and energy are beyond infectious. I've been feeling the same way too... Overwhelming excitement, bursting energy and positivity, and a deep sensuality that has made me very physically expressive with all of my friends :) Just this past weekend we had a cuddle party... It was wonderful! Watching the sun come up... I love watching blossoms spring forth all over a person. Your eyes send out light when you talk and the way you move your physical form shows your passion. We need to go for another sunny walk and bloom together :D
