Days like today really make me miss my social network. Looking at pictures of my friend's back home- seeing their smiles and group hugs, drinks in hand, makes me sigh and feel like I am really missing out. Not only on the escapism that friend's offer you but the support. Venturing out across the country alone without the prospect of hopping on a ( Read more... )

Creativity that is inseparable from our sexuality and spirituality holds surprises, teaches us things we did not know before we began, changes us, helps us unfold and become who we are at the deepest level of our being ( Read more... )

There is something I need to let out. I have expressed it to those in my inner circle but not in definitives. It has come out in terms of seeking, questioning, rationalizing. To admit the truth to the universe puts it out there with a power I cannot control. It becomes real. The idea of the reality settling in my soul sets my jaw and grinds my ( Read more... )

I can't believe summer is here and gone. I can't believe a lot of things right now. Such as I have been living out west now for nearly a year! That come the new year I will debt free!!

Sometimes it's nice to be able to just take ( Read more... )

I have wanted to make a travel scrap book for so long but am so intimidated by the idea if messing it up that I am too afraid to start. ugh. I need to get on that already ( Read more... )

Today I made a huge turkey feast for my husband and I. The first big dinner in our new apt in a new province. Dinner has come and gone, the food put away and the dishes in the dish washer. My husband has gone out with a friend and I am left at home alone ( not because of a lack of invite). My husband and I decided that we do not want children. Or ( Read more... )

Before there was the movie YES Man there was just this bloke from England who was depressed and had not to much going for him. Then he decided to create the Yes manifesto where he would say yes to life and any opportunity that came his way. Mostly it ended up in some misadventures involving internet scams with saudi princes in Amsterdam, many ( Read more... )

I'm feeling blue today. Not sure why. I should feel over-joyed that I am off for 6 whole days from work, but instead I feel introspective. I'm mulling and pining over things I wished or longed for but were never meant to be. Things that exist only in my head, and never were a reality for whatever reason. You know those things where you wonder why ( Read more... )
