THE SKY LIT UP // RAMPAGE OF APPRECIATION I am so grateful for PJ Harvey. I am so grateful for christmas lights! I am so grateful for naked bodies. I am so grateful for feelings of bliss. I am so grateful for feelings of frustration, accepting when they rise in me, then slowly letting them go. I am so grateful for not fighting against anything that comes my way. I am so grateful for spontaneous Kundalini awakenings. I am so grateful for not relying on medical doctors to diagnose or “fix” anything that may be awry in my body. I am so grateful for trusting the power of breath, for the power of nutrition. I am so grateful for knowing that if the body built itself, the body can heal itself. I am so grateful for my body. I am so grateful for everyone’s body. I am so grateful for daylight that lasts until 9:30pm. I am so grateful for intimate house shows and friends from out of town. I am so grateful for tiny successes that far outweigh any kind of failure. I am so grateful for knowing failure is a social construct to make us further believe in duality. Anything we do is a success in itself because we are moving through space, creating, existing, living. I am so grateful for deep breaths when I am out of breath. I am so grateful for texts from Erik saying “I love you!” when we are sitting right next to each other. I am so grateful for selling books for coffee money and kitty litter. What if we have a great time at the show tonight without drinking alcohol or smoking cigarettes? What if the ride home on the bus is fun and relaxing? What if I feel calm, protected and loved by the universe at all times? What if I am a ball of light? What if my energy is aimed at feelings of safety? What if I fully understand that fear breeds fear? What if I am kind and patient with everyone that crosses my path today? What if my life is a movie? What kind of movie would it be? What if tonight my movie is an ambient 60s art film with lots of color and light and long hair? What if there are sunglares in every scene? What if there is no speaking, only singing? What if I actually made a movie from my life? What if I film every day and compile all of the beautiful moments for myself and others to watch and vibe off of? What if everyone filmed their lives? I am so grateful for the ability to center myself in any environment. I am grateful for a window seat on the bus. I am grateful for raw wraps at the food carts this weekend! I am grateful for being able to buy train tickets to California tomorrow. I am grateful for always having enough food, sleep and love to survive. I am grateful for Twin Peaks. I am grateful for power jewelry. I am grateful for the tiny makeshift alter I have sitting above my tape deck. I am grateful for tokens of love. I am grateful for the memories that flood me when I hold specific tokens. I am grateful for physical reality because it is a perfect reflection of what is inside of me. I am grateful for focus. I am grateful for my eyes, open wide and smiling right at you.
