all the hoo-ha...and then the present moment

yo beard. funtastically awesome to connect with you on i-chat yesterday, and loved loved loved the fact that the universe ended our sesh as we boogied down in still frame.

so i'm in bc right now, the most beautiful part of the world at this time of year, as i choose to believe it. partner gone for work. his roommate gone for another half day. and i got the place to myself! i can see a silhouette reflection of my head and unkempt hair in the computer screen, backed by orange-berry tree branches. what a lovely momentses it is hey?

but then i get a little restless: what can i DO today? what can i produce? and while i'm cooking, cleaning, nesting, and arting, i really feel the need to go volunteer to clean up from this festival i just went to. not just because i'm rather attached to the site of a green river with boomey mountains . . . but a little bit of wOrk, just feels good. you can get in a rut when working 8-5, but you can get in a rut when you've been gallavanting around the globe for 6 months as well. i'm not in a rut [in this particular moment!] but i think participation is a huge one. if i go volunteer i will be participating in a greater project, a festival that three girls worked their asses off to make happen. show gratitude, give back, be with giving loving humans.

and then in the end, it doesn't matter what you're doing. it comes down to thich naht hanh style each and every time: this moment, this breath, is a gift. when you treat it as such, abundance comes.

sorry this post is lacking cohesion majorly - i lay down to take a nap on the couch yesterday at 4pm. i was surprised to wake at 1am, and slept more till 9 this morn. i therefore leave you with this wise word, abearda: deurrrr.

xx!
