Six years ago this weekend, I went to Colorado for the first time, with no map, and met my soultwin and heartmate when I wasn't looking. I found him shining and smiling between fire and falling stars, and our hearts knew each other on sight. We laughed, played, and marveled at the wonder of each other beginning on that day, and here we are, still conquering and dreaming. For that, I thank him. For that and so much more. Queen of spades and jack of all trades we are, firebirds and jesters, nomads and tale spinners and wise fools, on this wild and wonderful road, today and all days! May it ever be so.
This year we have worked miracles together, made art together, and laid down epic schemes,
some of which will be blossoming very soon. We have
hiked the Sierras, 'coptered
over the Grand Canyon, and
crossed the nation as usual. We have worked, promoted, slogged through, and soared--
my new album is released upon the world and it's the most beautiful and interactive one so far, because of all of the creativity and effort that he put into its visual aspects--all the pretty on the outside amplifies the music on the inside. None of this would have been as epic or as much fun without
omnisti there with me. He is as much a rock star as I am, for all the best reasons, and I am happy to tell you right now that he is resting beside me as I type. The best part of all, the best present and reward of all, is that we are both still here, celebrating each other.
I love you,
omnisti. Happy anniversary, my priceless, precious, genius love!
Yesterday we sought the company of wolves, trespassed, climbed, sang at a waterfall, devoured tasty pizza, and participated in music for a good cause. All in all, a fine way to mark the day. Thanks everyone for the well-wishes so far. It's been another hard year, but this intense and amazing life beats the easy way, hands-down.
