PICS
thank your lucky fucking stars that you live in this world.
it's the most beautiful thing imaginable. because it's the only thing imaginable.
today i sat down on the sidewalk outside of a vacant lot and cried in the sun, because i was just overwhelmed with all of this.
the taste of anise candy and the sounds of stepping on leaves. the weight of my purse as it swings. the way the light creates foil stars in all the creases of that candy wrapper. the shiny ribbons of a downed balloon wrapped around a chain link fence. the shush and rattle of the wind in the trees and fire escapes. the way feet fall one after the other when you're walking, stepping the time away moment by moment. the way your mind coalesces around each object, wrapping it soft and carefully, like a child wet from the swimming pool in a warm towel.
this life is a whistle hanging around your neck. it's an engagement ring worn on the index finger of your right hand. it's the touch of your lips against the quiet sidewalk.
this is it. this is it. this is it.

Happy Halloween 
or Happy Anyday...especially the sad days.

There is joy to be found in the mundane experience of daily life? You must be on something, yoga perhaps?

is it?
there are moments when I feel the same way.
but then so much of life is spent trapped in routine and the beauty is lost.
i wish i could see it. all the time.

btw, i finally decided to resign up for SG because I wanted to see your sushi set. and, although I shouldn't have spent the $, the set was definitely worth it.
