Time flies, or so the saying goes. Such are my sentiments regarding this year which seems to have gone as quickly as it arrived. Despite having done so much these past 365 days, I can not begin to understand why it feels as short as it does.


A year full of demands, stresses, lack of time, and unreasonable expectations, I conclude are the perfect recipe to 'frazzle" one up and bring about the kind of angst, which sits in one's belly like a heavy stone and quickens the heart's palpitations to out of control rhythmic waves River Phoenix would have been proud of.

Worrying it seems superseded all other feelings this past year and I can't help but wonder how the fuck it is that I made allowance for such a downward spiral. When was it that everything around me became so much more important than that of my core?

"Let go of more", has been my mantra as of late. I find myself reciting it, over and over again, in my head, "let go of more", "let go of more"...oftentimes to no avail but it is beginning to finally stick and slowly but surely I am coming around.

It is those words of newfound wisdom which I plan to make my New Year's resolution.

I am taking next year by the balls and making it my bitch.

2008 was a very heavy year, but 2009 seems to start off great by grace i must say...money dont make happy, but God bless the child that's got his own...

I will deff "let go of more"...

The simplicity of words in writing can some times be misconstrued therefore misunderstood.I stand corrected. Genuine human love and respect conquers all..A rare thing to find in THE life...

Genuine freedom and liberation can only be attained once our misapprehension of the nature of reality is completely overcome or so a Lama stated once upon a time.

I agree that it is often easier to become confounded by what we think we see rather than the myriad of possibilities each moment offers.

One also requires similar wisdom to own a wrong and so I thank you for the lesson in both humility and tolerance. You wear the “X” well.

Look forward to the photo shoot. Stay up.

I say Thank you for being you. Mind body and soul you are powerfull and give me so much inspiration. I am so excited to know more.You are my muse at the moment,,,
