Go do stuff!!

I woke up this morning knowing what I wanted for my life. Rather, I could say having a revelation on how God would have me live my life.

With loose roots. In a tent. Ready to follow a pillar of fire.

On the radio, I was hearing Bob Goff speak. He wrote a book called Love Does and I look forward to reading it. He's crazy! He's 'whimisical'! What a lovely thing to be for God.

Be ready and willing to make any sacrifice for the Lord. That good thing you were thinking of doing, do it now. That letter you wanted to write. Do it now. Telling your parents you love them. Do it now. Getting rid of the TV... do it now! The more I know, the more I want to know... Life is about learning. And I want to learn all I can plus more. I want to help people, to give all I can. This body is a tool, a mobility case for our soul. So do stuff!! While your soul has this body to borrow. Be ready when God says "go". Take a risk, your soul and your destiny have been purchased, what else do you have to lose?

I danced today...

... and had an epiphany. As i was swing dancing with an older gentleman, who seemed to enjoy spinning me as I was wearing a dress that flowing quite nicely when spun, i began to look around at the massive, swirling, flowing waves of people. My partner spun me and as I turned I noticed a friend I knew, who was dancing also... and I thought "I so appreciate who she is... she is just so beautiful and full of character". I spun and glanced again, I saw one who was very dear to me but far away and then someone who has also given much meaning to my life. I began to notice that every time I was spinning I saw someone else I knew, someone who's touched my life in some way.

It was like a garden, all of us. Dancing there together. We grow with each other and away from each other but always connected somehow and things never stay the same. Everyone follows the lead they are currently in and yet things can change in a blink. We are like a forest, tall trees sharing roots, providing shade and support. We are no more than breath in the wind.. but we are together. And every one of them, meaningful to me, i cannot seem to articulate.

Spinning... spinning...
SHE made me smile the other day. HER laugh makes me laugh. I remember what HE showed me about life. SHE makes me feel so at ease...

Riveted to one spot, spinning. How many more days will I get like this?  Then. It stops and life turns back on. I don't get many moments like that. Sometimes I feel like God shows me the inside of people. The soul side...

I am not typically a writer, but I had to share that moment.

Brainiac

Your brain is the most valuable asset you have. The most powerful computer on earth. It grows stronger and faster the more you use it, with it you can achieve literally almost anything you put your mind to. And with todays endless supply of information, you can create, do and learn almost anything! So whats holding you back from succeeding? You have a brain, Use it! :D

Mhm

Jennifer is well aware of her weaknesses... and dealing with emotional nausea for no good reason is ridiculous.

It has been said...

I saw Sherlock Holmes this past weekend and what a great movie! It caused a nostalgic feeling in me for that time period where things were much less technological. Maybe next time you see me, i'll be wearing a top hat. Then again, perhaps not.

For some reason, our gadgets seem to keep getting simpler, more efficient and we name them after traditional fruits. Meanwhile, our lives get crazier and less meaningful. Is this right?

I don't know. But I have a voicemail on my phone. I must leave my reception-less house to walk under the stars and find a needlepoint spot of signal on my driveway... begging your pardon me lads and ladies.
I"m exhausted and late for my photoshoot.... and I"m starting to fall into a slight depression. Ugh. Need sleep and a prayer. :P
