why is it that we can say the words we want to others and fail to do so for ourselves?... here i have to thank fiona for helping me remember what it is i once said:
"one of the most important things you ever said to me was the importants of imbalance ----> it can only mean one thing ------> you know what balance feels like!..... and it will return."
i took me a long hard time to recall such a memory... and.. the more i think about it... the more it is sounding like something i truly believe in...<- i know i did once say it, and with my heart... -> i made me think back to all those times in prescott 721.. sitting on the bed.. surrounded by candle light.... chatting at 4am in the morning... wondering why in the world we're still up... (haha.. only cuz we're contemplating thru the "imbalances").....
anyways.. it was one of those short but life changing experiences.. enlightening... i think it was amazing how in that little suite 721 of ours... so many life changing stories unfolded...this is true for all of us who stayed in it...we all met at a moment in our lives where we were all looking for change, and what i value most out of it is our lasting friendships for each other... i believe we all came out a different person... looking back.. it has only been 2 years and a bit... but if we reflect on where we all are... i would say that somehow.. we had predicted our future... those 8 months had changed all of us forever... made us better and stronger!
fiona: i am so glad that you remembered it, and i am glad it has helped you along... i guess what goes around does come back around... not the bad things.. but the good... here is something i see truth to:
<- the good seeds you plant will grow to give you shade when you need it ->
maud: i know you in france somewhere.. thinking of us... i know you must have gone thru the same "imbalances"... but i know you'll turn things around quickly.. and find your balance!! my dearest maud...
kai: it was nice seeing you this summer... although it was a short visit.. it felt just right and meant to be... i'm glad we had talked thru the night.. the little bit of reconnection is all we needed ... i'm glad that we've both stepped away from our old stories in 721... and now ready for new adventures before us!!!
now b4 we end.. here's a little something fiona left me:
<the Kid Rock song made me think 'theres nothing stranger than when the leaves began to change and we thought those days would never end'.>
uh.... the maple leaves are changing... we really should take the minute to forget the present.. and enjoy one of the most miraculous imbalances in nature... it will clear you head and loosen your burden!!!
