lemon, chocolate, creation and destruction...

today...is a U2 sort of day....sort of homecoming day....sort of lemon day....sort of beautiful day....

yesterday, I painted this....and just....love it....and as I painted, I listened to U2....Lemon...


she's gonna make you cry, 
she's gonna make you whisper and moan
and when you're dry, 
she draws the water from the stone...

I feel like I'm slowly slipping under....
I feel like I'm holding on to nothing... (U2, Lemon) 

and today, such a Beautiful Day....bright, hot (for January), sunny....

brilliant and clear....

"you're out of luck, and the reason that you had to care, the traffic is stuck, you're not moving anywhere, 

you thought you found a friend, to take you out of this place, someone you can lend a hand, in return for grace...

it's a beautiful day, don't let it get away....touch me, take me to that other place, teach me, I know I'm not a hopeless case...

after the flood, all the colors came out... it was a beautiful day...."  (U2, Beautiful Day) 


and this...

"Every act of creation is first an act of destruction" - Pablo Picasso 

sometimes....it's crucial to destroy- then create.....destroy existing fears...and false beliefs in order to make way for....create a new path...one free from the debris...stuff that is limiting, not liberating.

sweep away the debris and let yourself walk freely without being tripped up by this noise....

"he can who thinks he can, and he can't who thinks he can't..." Pablo Picasso

it's as simple as fear or love.  fear motivates people to act with fear....the behavior, the language, is fear based.....

love.....love motivates people to act with love...with grace...no judgements....embracing love....allowing people to be free on their path...helping them remove the debris, instead of putting more there....blocking their freedom, to live...and to be who they are.

limit or liberate.....

it's hard enough trying to find your path....and when you find it...you notice it full of so much crap....

destroy the crap....create your clear path.....the one to your dreams.


and chocolate....because chocolate.  :)


peace and love and.....sweeping your path...free....the heart is a bloom, give it some room.  :)
