whada want....

lately i have been very interested in the difference between needing vs. wanting. i have been observing the various ways this concept affects people's lives. when you need something...you hold no power. you need to breathe to stay alive...you can’t negotiate that, there are no choices. when it comes to wanting/needing things like success, love or material possessions....i think it is beautiful to only want them. it showcases that your efforts are conscious and purposeful. with matters of the heart, i think its best to simply want someone. there is a certain respect given when someone makes the choice to be with you rather then acting from fear of deprivation.

coming soon...

raw footage, raw sound....soon to be a video of my weekend in la

i love this girl...i love this song...

organic mechanics...

sometimes in life, there is no explanation to 'why'....all you can is just enjoy the 'because'
meeting people...
encountering spaces...
learning new things...

kim...

i just had the most inspiring conversation with a lovely woman on my flight. up above earth’s weather, you are really able to see the big picture. it was on our way out of the plane’s lavatory that we got stuck behind the pace of the drink cart. I initially thought....’fatal move! oh god....how long will i be here???!?!?!?’
we both took a seat and began chatting. in the end, it was an absolute delight.
Kim is a full-figured woman, full of fearless advice. i was captivated by the shine of her lip-gloss as well as her spot-on perspectives about money, men and maturity. we share many similarities...especially on our female attitude in life. she is just a few years older than me and is in the direction that i feel that i was also headed. it was refreshing to hear ‘from the other side’....and apparently forecast is sunny skies!!

its clear

within the final hours of Mother's Day i realized how much i really miss my mom. i haven't seen her for months....and i could use a hug. i started to notice the sensation of longing for a hug. i feel as if my ribcage has split and is separating slowly...like a canyon, leaving my heart alone in the center of me. the wind rushing straight thru as my heart hangs dead center in an abandoned space. as time goes by...the divide grows until the embrace pulls everything back in to a secure place.


just cuz...

my VERY talented cousin is coming to visit me for one of our infamous creative sessions! on today's menu: music, fashion...and video editing. should be good, the sun is shining and the thrift stores will be open....anything is possible!!
