I'm in the beginning stages of organizing the west coast tour that erik and I are embarking on. It is the most exciting, and thus far, rewarding thing i have done in a really long time. I'm enjoying researching different venues in different cities and I find it interesting that i can tell if we're a good fit for the venue based on the way their website looks. If I ever have a business I want to make a beautiful website for it.
There is a lot of work ahead for erik and I for this tour. It's like putting together a puzzle without being able to see the whole picture. It's fun ! We narrowed things down to where we want to play..now for the 2nd most important part. Booking the venues on the dates we want. And then on to the 3rd most important part. Figuring out how to get from city to city. And I haven't even thought any further along than that. One step at a time in this new adventure.
I feel like life is really changing. It's not by chance, but by choice. It feels empowering. But there is still the teensiest part of me that wishes it could be easy. That some random,beautiful miracle will pop in to my(and erik's) life. I feel like I've been wishing for miracles my whole life. It prevents me from working at my very hardest. I think.. I wish to God erik gets some amazing writing job. Or dear God, I hope we get a good record deal. Meanwhile.. there is always work to be done. So -- as a wise, dear friend of mine, Minnie, said to me over skype the other day..-- "i'm just going to keep doing what i'm doing."
and to that I will add that I will try to infuse, into each day, more presence, more openness and more faith in myself, that I can do, truly and without fear, whatever it is that i feel i am called to.
