all about music...
today is saint patrick's day! although i truly have no idea why or what it means.. i love to know the meanings behind holidays. maybe i will look it up.. st. patty's day reminds me of my irish heritage.. my grandfather's father (or maybe grandfather) on my mama's side came straight from ireland to the u.s. and married a pure indian woman.. they had children, and i spawned from that. i have irish, cherokee indian, english, dutch, italian, portugeuse in me... not that it really matters. most humans on earth in this day and age are mixed with everything.. it's a beautiful thing, to have a little bit of every culture and color in you :) but it's also so beautiful to see someone who is purely african american or indian or swedish or japanese.. i remember once, during the fall, i saw the most beautiful indian man.. he looked to be in his early twenties and had the most shiny blue-black long hair. his skin was a lovely tan-red tone and his eyes were a dark brown-black color. so gorgeous... in a very rare and unique way. we sat at tables across from each other in the health food store/cafe and we kept taking sneaking glances at each other. it was silly... when i thought he wasn't looking, i would just stare at his beautiful face. and when i was looking down at my food, i could feel his eyes on me. he was extraordinary.. i have always loved indians. there is something so special and sacred about them and their culture... then he left, and was gone.. and i have never seen him since.
today has been all about music so far... i have been burning numerous cds (because a lot of my cds are scratched beyond listening to) and making mixed cds. it's so fun! i love music... but it's already almost 11:30 and i've been on the computer messing around with cds and music since about 9! there are other things i want to do today.... practice ballet (my new pointe shoes are going to be arriving any day.. yay), clean the house, stretch, read 'gingerbread,' and write.. and if i don't get any of that done, that's okay with me :) i don't think it's always a good thing to plan your whole day.. it's good to leave space open in your day to let things just flow and happen...
tonight nat is coming over because we're going to have an irish dinner, with corned beef and pickled cabbage, potatoes, and carrots. yummy! it will be fun.. i always love to see that girl. <3 <3 <3 <3
happy green clover day to everyone and anyone! take a moment in your day to look at all the beautiful shades of green, and see how they make you feel. green always reminds me of healing and growing and changing... it's the color of nature and plants and flowers and life. a very sacred color...
