...an upturned apple cart.

breathe...again, relax...again, breathe...again, learn...

what do you do when everything in your life is up in the air?

1. admit that your decisions are what lead you to this place. take responsibility for yourself! I am here because of me. I am NOT a victim of circumstance.
2. stop being so darn hard on yourself.
3. do something. not just keep busy but find a constructive way to spend your time.
4. be creative and find ways to make money (not prostitution)
5. don't use your credit card to sustain an unrealistic standard of living.
6. find some way to express the emotional journey that this ambiguous state puts you in....write, compose, poems, painting...something.
7. take this very unique time and opportunity to look at yourself in a different light.
8. give...to others...friends, strangers, acquaintances...just give. it will keep you from feeling sorry for yourself.
9. interview.
10. try and find new ways to enjoy life....that don't include money.

Peace!

We hiked in silence. We drove to the hike in silence. There was a moment when I thought reaching out to you would bring us closer together.  And then there was her. There was the her from the iPhone that got in the way.  The her that made me think, what the fuck are you even about.  You actually follow Kylie Jenner on Twitter... holy shit where did you come from?   That repelled me... the final thing that made me judge that pushed me away from you.  The thing that tossed me into another place and made the silence begin. I simply couldn't figure out how to get out of the silence.  I couldn't figure out how to crawl out of the hole.  I would make a comment.  You would make a comment.  But nothing.  It's as if the final strand was broken.  It was as if the final tenuous delicate little tie that held us together broke.  We shouldn't have gone hiking. I know you hated it.  You wanted me to believe that you liked the outdo...

you came in and you ran out and i wanted to say hello and you were gone and then you were back and you were smiling and we were talking (breath) and we were talking about important things and we were talking about things that made me cry (breath) and we were looking for colin and we were walking around the room and we were talking about life and you were speaking to a part of me that hadn't been spoken to in years (breath) and we were talking and finally in the thump, thump, thump of the room you asked if i wanted to get out of there and we were leaving and we were walking out the door together and we were standing in the parking lot and we were talking and you put your head on my shoulder and i grasped the back of your neck and my heart melted and my knees got weak (breath) and we were talking and we were talking about important things and we decided to go back to my place and we talked and laughed and talked and laughed and looked into each others eyes and were respectful of the ...

again and again and again...

the cycle is so present... always present... whether in my written notes or my online blog there is me getting excited about something, getting lost in the pursuit and then musing about it and stating that I've learned something only to repeat it... why? I'm hear again, well, sorta... my friend Mike said to me today, if you would only make a decision to settle on something. You have amazing energy and talent but you just need to settle on something. I am simply not sure what that is... still... not sure of so many things. I'm enjoying life though... have a great job... have nice friends... maybe i just have inflated expectations about what life is suppossed to be? maybe I just want too much? not sure... just saying. life is good.
