 Outside during the night…dancing alone with the wind blowing..the view and sound of the ocean…the trees…the moon and stars. That is all my body requires…a shooting star makes it even more beautiful…   I do not need another person to try and change me. Accept my uniqueness from start to finish. Accept…feel… my empowering force that empowers you to be yourself…whatever that is… by me being myself. Do not try and shape me…nor change me…merge me…nor influence me…do not try and involve me in the tribal and collective way…I have my own way…I am individual….on my own path…in my own unique different freaky way…I am individual…an outlaw…an outcast. I can partake in group activities…but I am never part of the group…I am on my own trip…I am individual…melancholic…sad…happy…directed inwards…a creative being…a mutative empowering force…do not try and change me…nor influence me…let me be. Do not fear what I bring…something unique & different…mutation…evolution…something that does not fit your normal standards…if you try and change me, influence, coerce me to your communal ways… well, then, then you will miss out on what you want…change in the world. I bring acceptance, allowance. By me not changing…sticking to my own unique direction…I bring something different new ways of being, living…mutation takes place all around the world. I have my place in the world just like you…it’s just …different…I am…individual…
 Well now I feel once again calm and rooted…the ocean..ah the ocean…took a stroll down by the sea during the night…it so beautiful..so serene….so…beyond words…and that sound of the gentle waves…the sweetest sound ever…I so felt to take a swim and definitely would have if it weren’t for all the jelly fish…I did take off my shoes though and let the water wash over my feet as I stood listening and admiring the beauty that stood before me…it was refreshing and my body got used to the temperature… would have loved to dive in…what a gift to watch the stars and the transition of slowly more and more clouds coming covering them…the sea feels like home for my body and reminds me of home…I used too very often walk down to the water at nighttime and sit by its side…
 Gggrrr….my body restless….frustrated…annoyed…angry….sad…not sure what it is…a feeling of yearning to scream…explode…release…what? I do not know…something wishes to come out…unknown… I dance… the only proper form of release…I hop & turn…spin…shake…movement expresses my body’s sensations at this moment in time…still overrun by a feeling of restlessness…of so much…from what or where unknown…needing to be alone…not engage in any interaction or discussion… no people are welcome …time to dive within…retreat…I am an aggressive wolf …growling…alert…ready to pound… I flow with it…dive into it…allow it…my body to take me…express whatever it wishes…I watch observe to see what will come…what words… feelings…sensations…what the muse will bring… I do not judge it…go against it…I ride it and discover what will be revealed…deep in the muse …my creativity ready to explode…bring something new…unbound… I wait to see what will emerge… The more I dance the more I get lost within the sound…the music…I leave all else…I am flying yet never more grounded…within myself…within earth… I stop dancing and look out the balcony window to the stars which calms my body and soul…I relax…the owl within begins to call for a walk among the night sky… perhaps by the ocean…I allow my wings to open…the night calls….   For me I love you when I love me…when I take care of me…being me…when I want you to love yourself…follow your path…your being…be the full expression of yourself. When me or you do not have to sacrifice anything…cut any pieces off…instead…we are being each and every piece of ourselves…I honor your every single cell…all of you…sharing our entire being with each other…I do not require to take pieces… I want you to be whole…I want you to have everything…and that everything is all that you are…
 I have been waking up to this view each morning…what a gift truly omg!!! Being with the water…viewing it all day as I am immersed in my individual melancholy, my innocence and writing…just being…enjoying every second…creating…musing…        Grounded within the core of my body, my being…my spirit speaks. I am within my essence…feeling alive…vibrant, tranquil…I feel nurtured…comfort…serenity…here in this moment…enjoying this moment…my awareness speaking…tranquil. I feel as if am floating…I am touching the bed the table, the floor here all around…and at the same time my body is beyond the physical…it is everywhere. Deep in my motivation of Innocence, there is only being, each movement of my body is ecstatic…magical, mystical….my body is grounded within my being…I am being me…and that which it contains…results is everything. My body is floating…flying travelling…I do not know where…it does not matter…only that it feels correct…beautiful…oh! how I love being in my natural self…I am flying floating within my body among the physical and at the same time beyond…the most beautiful feeling…not one or the other…but embracing both…feeling both…loving both…loving every part of me…and loving every part of life. Oh, how I love this internal and physical space…when I am deep in my being…myself and my melancholy…where everything is possible…where I never know what’s coming… what creativity or art will emerge…what movement…what words…what stories…what visions…I do not choose it…it just comes…no effort…no control…just allowance…just being…alive in my body this moment…
 Some weeks ago I was by this pond having fun taking photos of each other with my friend. There was this moorland hawker dragonfly among others. A male came and swooped this one quite violently and was mating with her as she was under water and seeming trying to get away seemed like he was drowning her. When he left she was stuck in the water drowning as her wings were drenched. We took her out of the water and placed her on the pier. She just sat there recuperating. About 10 min after another male or same came doing the same thing. I once again placed her back on the pier. Her wings looked damaged and she did not seem well at all. Another male came so I put my hand in front blocking him. After a little bit I placed my hand out and she climbed on on her own. I put my other hand over to hide her from males and I took her a little bit away from the pier so she can rest and dry. My friend left and well I was supposed to be doing things but I sat with the dragonfly. She walked up to right before my elbow and sat “cleaning her face” and sometimes gently moving her body. After about 15 minutes she walked up to my shoulder and sat there. My mind was a bit, “ok we have to go” but I felt I would sit there for as long as she needed to sit there. There was no question about it. At one point this old woman walked by with her dog on the other side of the fence. Now I was lying down in a very awkward position on the ground and of course from that distance she could not see the dragonfly and she was looking at me as if I am a mad person….that was so funny lol. I said hello and she just gave me you are crazy look. I kept telling the dragonfly “you can do it!” after about ten minutes I was very happy to see that she was able to fly away. I read about them and apparently the females of this species have evolved to faking their death to protect against aggressive males coming to mate with them as many times they risk injury and death. I have often have dragonflies come to me in distress trapped somewhere or something like that and generally they have played an important role in my life… Grateful for the gift of those moments…             I get to meet the most interesting coolest people at local farmers markets…such beautiful people…with beautiful stories…such a lovely atmosphere and just the smiles. This one person was drawing animal portraits of people how cool is that? I love Vashon island…   |
