A quote for you...

"Let yourself go. Pull out from the depths those thoughts that you do not understand, and spread them out in the sunlight and know the meaning of them."

A Room With A View, E.M. Forster

Things to pull out of myself (tonight):
1) The irritating urge to organize
2) Confusion, exaggeration of that confusion, maybe creating something beautiful out of this perceived confusion.
3) Reflections of myself, within things that adorn the body (vague, I know...it is a secret)
4) Fear. To acknowledge it is to move forward and moving forward is sweet progress.

2011.

2011 started off with a bang: dinner with my girlfriends and the release of dead weight. It also marked the beginning of a new phase in my career. Overjoyed is not the word to describe how I feel, maybe ecstatic is more suitable for the occasion. I've stretched my self to obtain this moment...literally. I am revealing part of the Etsy store soon and I made a website to display my work. So far, so good. Now, off to training online...

Make peace.

 

 Today I thought of restrictions and more importantly, the ones that I place on myself. Why worry or fear...really? If I want to be free, it has to start with me. So, I'm free...I claimed it...just a few seconds ago. My hair, its free (really, it is). My skin, its free. My choice of clothing, my style, my walk, my talk...it is also free.

Dreams

I've dreamed plenty, seeing myself as a cloud that rises and moves without limitations. Life, from that standpoint, seems happier, my smile is as wide as hips and I'm not just living, I'm thriving.

Each time I awaken, I faced with the reality that I am not "there" yet, but I am getting close. As one relationship ends, I went through the hurt, the remorse, and the anger, only to rekindle a love with another relationship-- the one I once had with myself. It is beautiful, freeing. Each day that surpasses the next, I have grown stronger in my faith and my awareness of what matters has become clearer. Friends and family, talents & aspirations. The God that walks with me and resides in what I do.

As Maya Angelou said it: "You can only become truly accomplished at something you love. Don’t make money your goal. Instead pursue the things you love doing and then do them so well that people can’t take their eyes off of you."

LIGHT.
