rest

taking a few days to rest my weary self.
in a quiet place. sleeping.
tomorrow i get packed up.
then on to another phase.
the journey of a freelance set costumer.
AND artist.
i’m learning just what that means.

my biggest challenge is to understand
and move into an area where my life is
interconnected.
not just fragmented pieces that seems to
have no connection to one another.

time and lessons….

xo to me.
giving myself permission.

on wednesday i am attending the premiere of
500 days of summer at the phoenix film festival.
can’t wait!!

what do you hear?

i am reminded why i love tv and movies
for the moments, when i watch a scene
and hear/see something that stirs
that feeling of “oh yeah” in me.
i am reminded of who i really am.
i am reminded of possibility.
so it is not the show but the MAGIC

today it is all about this from friday Night lights (tv show):

“Two years ago, I was afraid of wanting anything. I figured wanting would lead to trying and trying would lead to failure. But now I find I can’t stop wanting. I want to fly somewhere in first class. I want to travel to Europe on a business trip. I want to get invited to the White House. I want to learn about the world. I want to surprise myself. I want to be important. I want to be the best person I can be. I want to define myself instead of having others to define me. I want to win and have people be happy for me. I want to lose and get over it. I want to not be afraid of the unknown. I want to grow up to be generous and bighearted the way that people have been with me. I want an interesting and surprising life. It’s not that I think I’m going to get all these things, I just want the possibility of getting them. The possibility that things are going to change. I can’t wait.”

That one sentence about defining really resonated with me.
it sticks me in the heart and says “be true”.

xo

i listen

when i sit quietly,
the voice in my heart says
“relax into love.
be kind
you are not gonna be perfect
i love you.”

when you hear that
something
in you believes.
even though you may
not “feel” it.

almost done with this job.
3 days more.
