We do take on tasks that after a time become some what different then what we originally signed on for… at some point we may even see them as burdens or responsibilities where before we saw them as tasks we wished to do for the greater good… altruistic we can be for a time eventually that takes a toll and our generosity can be twisted to another’s benefit…
In writing we get lost in the flow of the magic as we find our way around the daze we are in… reproductions are the heart of an artist… we are in all ways trying to redo our latest master peace… if we only could find that magic once more… if we could only just step back into the mood we were in and transcribe the moments we could get there… what I have found is that it is much easier to just put that aside and move along the path to the next convergence of thought… I love reproductions of art and in time I will possess some originals and some copies… and I feel free to copy what I come across that inspires me… you know that when words are eaten it is a means by witch we are being told to do some thing more… challenged we are to come up with a wandering pathway… as a path finder… and tour guide we all get to show others the way… it can be a burden at times… but it is a delight filled burden to arrange the passage of wonder into another’s memory…
The thought is that likes attract likes and that opposites repel… when in fact the reverse is true in nature… all the same peas are not pulled together in one pod… there are laws in nature that allow for the numbers to find a way to the mind… when deep in thought one should ask what the number means… to me numbers have in all ways held certain unique characteristics… the following is a sequence of numbers I associate with hue… 22 11 19 13 35 the last number of this sequence is not clear… now I would not put all my chips into one number butt into a few variations of numbers… while I can think in some terms of the wonder of numbers… the fact is that so many are focused on finding the correct combination that it is some what chaotic… butt I over stand the process yes and I will keep you aware of the numbers that fall into mind…
Happiness is an internal state of mine… in being happy we glow from the inside out… the state of mind ignites the flame in others by your presence and it is contagious… any state of mine is a state of yours… any place I can go you can wander in freely… happiness is one of those pathways that invites others with open arms and embraces them in an endless loop of smiles laughter and delight in being who they are… I am most happy when surrounded by hue…
In doing we stop… in starting we begin to end the hesitation steps we employ to find our way… at once slow and then rolling faster down the hill we gather speed until we are on the edge of being out of control… madness sets in as the ball rolls… as the bell tolls in the church steeple… here is the wonder where are all the people… we stop… we wander along looking for the crossing of the road to sit upon the largest rock that looks like a bear and wait for the bear to roam bye that was the model for the artist’s rendering… a true masterpiece of rack and hand chiseled out and stood along the side of the side rode as we do past so many times we fail to notice the real one… a perfect picture of family wonder… around the tree gathered in mind and waiting for the plunder… the trials of so many years comes to this moment in time as a series of lessons learned and moments remembered… perhaps it is necessary to wander before one crawls…
The world has slopes and plateaus… and as we climb to one we seize upon another… and when we reach and stretch out our minds to capture it another appears on the horizon to captivate our imagination… in so doing we open our minds to the ever changing possibility and opportunities that are before us…
What I have found in dealing with old patterns is that it is best to change how we react to them… of how we emotionally react to them so that a sense of center or peace is kept while the pattern is pursued by the other… this has allowed me to see and then to react in difference… in most cases in a more positive way… change does not have to be profound or a leap to make the other aware… in fact most of the time I have noticed that a slight alteration does more for lasting change then a huge leap… and those slights are ways of saying what we wish to say in ways that are easy for us and get our message across to the other side… there are times though when the barriers are thick with past history and it does take a bit more sledgehammer to drive the nail in…
Having hope is not a flaw in you… having hope is a great part of your personality… you never seem to give up hoping that they will change and embrace responsibility for themselves… it is part of what makes you who you are… if you take away the wonder of your ability to hope… even foolishly… it takes away from the wonder of who you are… I would say to you to keep hoping that one day they will open their eyes so that when they do you can embrace the change in them…
The normal routine for me does not return to the beginning of next week and up until then I will try to find as many ways not to do normal things… butt I am a bit boring in that I love to write… read… sit and talk… enjoy the company of others… even in silence… to be comfortable enough to not have to talk is a true gift…
We can search for the perfect fit and never seem to find it… and then out of know where in particular some one we know gives us the opportunity and our eyes open and we are presented with what is the perfect peace to our puzzle…
When receiving a gift we often have expectations of what that gift will be or what we may find wrapped inside… the expectation taints the gift that resides within the fabric… the gift is in the giving… it resides in the act of thought… collection and giving… yes what you received was not completely what you wanted… but is was in many ways what you asked for… and what you needed to put into perspective the time before… all life is a test of what you have learned… of where you are now and what direction you are focused on going… as we experience each gift we assign them a place in our hearts… and this one was expected to be more so nit will not have that place… it is a sign to you of what you expect and want… what you consider appropriate from me and what you truly want me to think about you… your expectation was that it would contain more yet it contains a lot more then you realize… each of those tapes were assembled some time ago with a deep passion… when you listen to them… hold them in your hands if you are open to it you will feel the thoughts I had while making them… if not perhaps one day you will… I have hope for you… I believe that one day you will…
When we hold our expectations within… and never release them in soft conversation we do ourselves an injustice… for when we hold in we selfishly ignore the others around us… we never allow them the freedom to hear our words… we assume they know… it is that assumption that traps us…
In sending you a gift I wrapped each in a thought that escaped once the package was opened… see within this things… these tangible pieces of plastic and tape… of metal and paper the thoughts I have had of you over the years we have known one another… sense in these things my heart and my soul… it is a challenge to you to look at all that you have… to take stock of what is there for you day after day and week after week and now year after year… in to the second decade of time we are… I set before you a challenge to see yourself as the object of this passion as the inspiration of these words… music… efforts and thoughts… I know how difficult an expectation not reached is… how much it hurts to open some thing expecting one thing and finding a collection of old things already received… a re-gift of sorts… and now as you wander in mind you feel a sense of hurt injustice… a thought of uncaring occupies your mind… what you see is what you didn’t get in the amongst the many things you did… and within the many that you did get exists an entire history of time that we have spent growing with one another… so perhaps it is time to allow you time to take stock… arrange in your mind what is important and for you to say what is important to you… in my mind these things were what was needed more then a letter… a card… or a sensual peace of clothing… these things to me spoke of history and foundation on witch one can build a life time of closeness…
Lessons are not about who you are to me… they are about who you are to you… the effect is being what you are about… who gives a shit what I think… or what I believe should be… it is not in one instant about any thing of that sort… we become what we believe ourselves to be… the entire message I was sending was that all life tests you… it is not about pass and fail… it is about growing and learning… you are who you are and when you begin to enjoy that and like that then the changes you seek will happen… you are trying so hard to be some thing for me that you forget to be you… and forget that it is you first and fore most that I like… you place way too much emphasis on what I think or believe or say… what I am doing is giving you ideas… suggestions comments based on what Io sense they are in no way an absolute truth… stop now taking what I say as the ultimate reality… start now taking what you desire to be the truth and move in that direction… I believe we all get to have the life we choose… and I am having difficulty believing this is what you want… so perhaps you need to just say fuck it all and move on to some thing worth having… stuck you are in this spiral of feeling good and then not… and needing to find reason and rhyme in the folds of the trees… there is no logic in what I say at all… it is just what came to my mind…
The pendulum swings… as often as one reaches the other stretches… in sew doing we make the effort seem strained… what was once easy has become an challenge… and that in itself speaks volumes… relationships suddenly find themselves in rough seas… that is part of the process… if it means some thing to you… time is taken to right the ship and fight the sea… if it does not then you turn for safe harbor and leave the other to struggle on alone… never have I considered the easy way around such obstacles… and this is no different… what I do realize is that my state of mine has become some what uneasy… and while I long for the effortless communication we once had… I know that I only have to hold on long enough for that to swing pass once more…
What I realize most of all is that you find fault in what ever I write… in so doing that colors my world in such a way as to prevent the free flow of words as they once existed… it is difficult to find peace… yet I do find it…
I take you in my arms… hold you to my breast and kiss you deeply… a kiss of passion… a kiss that speaks… a kiss that takes your breathe away… know words need to be said… know words can satisfy the desire… know words can bridge the chasm… time is when time is necessary to freeze time in the stillness and find a way to illicit sighs and expand moans without words being spoken… hands… lips and finger tips… bodies lost in motion… passion exerted and released…sometimes action is what is required…
