Truth

I think one of the hardest things for me to overcome is accepting how to let myself be loved and trusting that someone can actually do it wholeheartedly.

I pray that I can just let my pride and insecurities down in order to be that pure vessel of love. Until then, it’s a painful process for everyone involved and me.

And that’s the truth.

Last year, I hiked around this, the Blue Mountains, in Australia. Beautiful.

I am determined to leave the country on a trip to somewhere different next year.

After watching tonight’s show, the Fall Dance Festival at UNR, I realized why I love dance. I think there is great humanity in movement and expression with one’s body. It’s challenging and provides a few moments of discomfort, when you’re forced to go out of the box. Dancing also makes me see how beautiful the human body and movement can be. With so many instilled insecurities about my physique I’ve had from the past (which I am breaking down gradually as I get older), I feel beautiful when I dance, in essence. There is something appealing about the structure and the free-form. It motivates me to take care of myself physically. And in this day in age when people my age are drowned with work, school, and life things, wellness is often neglected. So I figure, it’s a positive for me, and I may as well refine and work on it.

I have an entire year to condition and take more classes. I’d love to learn more and different technique, movement, and styles. Because next year, I will be auditioning for the fall dance festival. Oh yes. I will be.

I’m super excited that Up is out on DVD today! <3

Today's Wish

Today, I wish that my car would be able to leave town, go over the mountains safely in one piece and that I had an extra $90 for a nice motel/hostel room somewhere far away near lots of colored trees.

I would escape and re-read Elizabeth Gilbert’s Eat, Pray, Love.

Then, I’d breathe.

It’s a great concept and local benefit concert thrown together by some very young, talented Filipinos. And oddly enough, I will be partaking. Please check it out! :)

What I Learned from Noah's Ark

Everything I need to know about life, I learned from Noah’s Ark.

One: Don’t miss the boat.
Two: Remember that we are all in the same boat.
Three: Plan ahead. It wasn’t raining when Noah built the Ark.
Four: Stay fit. When you’re 600 years old, someone may ask you to do something really big.
Five: Don’t listen to critics; just get on with the job that needs to be done.
Six: Build your future on high ground.
Seven: For safety sake, travel in pairs.
Eight: Speed isn’t always an advantage. The snails were on board with the cheetahs.
Nine: When you’re stressed, float a while.
Ten: Remember, the Ark was built by amateurs; the Titanic by professionals.

This really warms my heart and makes me smile. :)
