Passing Along

Little love affair with Tumblr.com. So much beauty in one place… possibly the devil in disguise. We’re talking serious time suck. Quoting from Heart Spirit Mind, as this hits home with so much of what I’m fighting myself about lately.

Have the daring to stop doing the things you really don’t want to do. Can you see them? Look closely. Can you observe the many things you do because you reluctantly feel you should or must? Watch closely. Examine every action and reaction. Do you act naturally or do you act because you feel compelled? If you feel compelled, stop. Compulsion is slavery. Example: Refuse to go along with the crowd.” — Vernon Howard

What a perfect day might look like.

We’ll return after these messages…

Hippo-what?

Hipstamatic photo frenzy today.

Channeling my inner karate kid.

Good reads and records.

I love lamp.

Sunday Night

One of my favorites is hearing new music, liking it well enough, the end… until somehow revisiting that same music months later and falling absolutely in love.

As of late.

Keep reveling in the fact that what’s happening here with music is what I was moving to Nashville for. The Nashville move that intense outside forces repeatedly prevented from happening. Funny how these things work out and start to make sense down the road.

News to me.

Was letting a colony of these live in my room to protect my blood. Come to find out, mosquito eaters (also known by other farcical names such as mosquito hawks) don’t eat mosquitos! They’ve since been evicted. They’re gangly.

This week was full of learnin’. Was reminded by OMG Facts that: The word ‘News’ is actually an acronym standing for the 4 cardinal compass points – North, East, West, and South.

Ditching the learning curve, had tears streaming down my face at 3:00am over this gem of hilarity… she had me at King James Version. Read on from the Amazon DVD recommendation: Gumdrop Lane!.

“Global compassion” is an incredible phrase.

Scrap Paper

Miscellaneous notes I’ve written in my phone over the past week or so. Never know what to do with these unfinished musings, so rather than completely scrap, why not dump them here?

I. Flying side-by-side with the orangest, sometimes eerily blood red, Cheshire Cat smile of a moon.

II. Always inspired to write while flying. Something about being blissfully disconnected from the rest of the world.

III. Currently passing by pastures, cows, and a rather lonely looking farmhouse overlooking the Pacific. The thing that always amazes me about the Oregon Coast is the open space alongside the ocean. Especially when compared to the jam-packed portion of that same highway down in SoCal. Up here, entire farms have ideal beachfront accommodations… there are hundreds of cows lazily eating grass while gazing at the ocean! Down in California, people pay millions for that view.

IV. I wonder how much weirder luggage contents are for those heading home post-Christmas. Held my breath while the ticket counter lady weighed my awkwardly packed, gift-filled suitcase… 49.6 pounds. Whew! Christmas miracle?

V. “You have big eyes!” A little girl’s blue raspberry popsicle breath tickled my nose as she giggled at her observant declaration.
