tears and exhales.

Indiadetail in an import shop, canon rebel xti, april 2009

the tears are flowing today, which is typically a good sign for me that my heart is open and i am on the right path. i'm grateful for the release. and for sunglasses.

it's been quite a week. major decision making and metaphorical sky diving.  road tripping and a broken hybrid in the desert. tow-trucks, fireworks, fears, and revelations. the kindness of complete strangers. the embrace of beloved friends. thunder and lightning storms, total overwhelm and maybe a little too much pinot. sweet love and pure silliness with my partner and my children. 

i'm doing my best to reconcile each moment with expectation and anticipation. focusing on the  exhales and the center point amidst such crazy extremes. looking up. looking ahead. making lists and task-mastering. and believing that what is coming for me is exactly what is supposed to be. continuing to say yes to the doorways and then getting out of the way so that my most incredible, authentic, blessed life may continue to unfold. 

oh my god. i'm going to india!

tension release.

sometimes the only thing that dissolves the tension inside is an experience of raw elements. submersion. floatation. baptism in the river.

and the vision of red cathedrals. because nothing feels more silly than to be tense in the presence of such wondrous magnitude.

thank you, zion. you've never let me down. you have a way of rearranging my cells and helping me to remember who i am. and you make the road-trip from california to colorado worth it.
