hi lovies. i’m a little overbooked these days, but the gratitude must go on. it’s amazing really, how i feel it when i don’t do these for a while. like i start to get that empty well feeling. like a low slow yowl of need starts to rouse when i forget how blessed i am. remembering that one thing is everything.
i am grateful for:
1) electricity
2) that i get to do work i love sometimes
3) feeling hopeful
4) how cancer has sort of ebbed for me lately. just the anxiety, the worrying, the death-obsessing. it’s all there, i’m sure, but maybe i’m digesting pieces of it.
5) interviewing krishna das last week–will have interview soon. yay! and he’s got a new album out today. so good, so excited.
6) going to kirtan tomorrow night with bc. here’s hoping he’s not freaked by my chant-o-rama-ram, ram, ram-ness.
7) my malas that i made, i feel like linus with them lately.
8) no tsunamis in hawaii. so so so whew.
9) headlines today about the earthquake actually having shifted the earth’s axis. because, i mean, really? and how can you worry about much when the earth just moved? we are all made of stars.
10) the orchid show is back! i love those crazy-weird patterned alien-faced, vulva-shaped, bizarro fleurs
11) noticing more and more when i am not noticing
