Sometime....

I wish that I could fold myself into an envelope and mail myself someplace, more deserving of my genius. Yeah...I did just say that. Just like that. There are times where I feel that I am obviously speaking a foriegn language. When I speak, there are times that I am looked at in a strange way, you know that little "turn of the head" that you do when you are utterly confused? I am totally aware that I am the common denimonator and ultimately, it is me with the "challenge". I mean here I am, asking for what I want...and being denied. And, I am saying what I feel; and it is ALWAYS/usually/mostly misunderstood. So perhaps, I should simply learn the language of the land. Simple. One Dimensional. Backward. Boxed in. Sorry, if I offend anyone reading this. Well not really, because I am exercising my deserved freedom of speech.

Moving on, last night was incredible. Partner took me to the movies, and we went to a theater which I had never been; and we enjoyed each others company, and an adult beverage ;) Then when we arrived in for the night, we sat in the car and listened to Melanie Fiona's soulful and colorful voice. I hadn't sat still with someone that I love in a long time, to just quietly listen to art flow. It was as though, for those 3 minutes and 17 seconds, time and space stood still. I fell in love all over again. Now I wish I could explain that the night flowed in such a timeless and romantic way going forward. But, it did not. Can you say back and leg pain? Ugh...Jesus be a temper-pedic. (laughing as I type this)

I am sure I will have more to say later as time goes by. My day is going to be a full one. But you know I have to leave you with some random thoughts as I "roll out":

1. If you have NEVER left your hometown before to take up residence elsewhere...you should give it a try. Stop doing things which are comfortable as an excuse no to try something new.

2. Finally, and maybe this should have been first....real love doesn't require lenses or announcements. You just know it. In spite my purposeful distance with my family, my baby sister tried on numerous times to reach me via phone on last night. Love never fails. You don't hide behind selective scriptures, or emails...you come out and do whatever it takes to get your message across. Again, love, never fails.

Be ye warm today Kings & Queens :)
