Love my horoscope for the week...so perfect!

CANCER (June 21-July 22): If His Holiness the Dalai Lama (like you, born
under the sign of the Crab) had a Twitter account, I bet that this week
he'd tweet something like this: "Nothing's permanent and we should
never be attached to anything, but wow! -- the goodness rising up now
may send ripples through eternity!" What he'd mean is that while reality is
always in continual flux, and it's wise not to cling obsessively to either its
pleasures or sadnesses, the powerfully healing mojo that's moving
through Cancerians' lives these days could have long-term positive
consequences.

i don't want to forget it.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

I'm in quest of new role models. There've been some good ones in my
life, and I'm grateful for how they've awakened me, but right now I
need fresh heroes worth emulating. Know any? I'm not dogmatic about
what I'm looking for, and am willing to be surprised, but here are a
few qualities I admire: compassion combined with unpredictability, high
integrity mixed with an intense commitment to creativity, and
self-discipline blended with playfulness. I like smart talkers who are
also savvy listeners, and people who have a balance of open-minded
objectivity and emotional intelligence.
By the way, what's true for me
is true for many of you, my fellow Cancerians: You could use a new role
model, too, and it's an excellent time to go in search of one.

to sit and twidle my thumbs at smoothie zone.  i'm only here for the free wi-fi.  yes,  i'll have strawberry banana vitamin packed smoothie while i'm here..and the sweet man at the counter just gave me a free cookie, i feel special.  it's freakin' beautiful outside...finally a beautiful day outside, the sun is shining..the birdies are a chirpin'..and it's blue skies as far as my eye can see.  i would sit outside but two big mamas are taking up the whole table.  boo!

As i sit here and wait for Cam man to get out of school, i talk to strangers...only because i feel halfway decent today...the weather makes it all that much better.  it helps staying out my head.  usually i want to put a bullet through most strangers' heads.. yay for them, i'm in a good mood today.  i can tell, that as things change in my life...people come and go...i'm learning to just be happy on my own.  no one around to depend on for smiles.  i like it like that.  i can see myself being alone for extended periods of time and not falling into a hole of darkness.  i did have the thought this morning of  "what if i had an ice pick"  i would stick it in this road rage maniac's chest.  scary, huh.  i need to stop watching CSI.

i like to sit and stare, at no one in particular, just sucking up the atmosphere.  watching the way people move, the way their face reacts when talking to someone new.  i am a people watcher; i don't mind being in the back scene. 

i can't stop singing sarah mclaughlin in my head... mirrorball, thanks to mrs. willingham.  man, i get so emotional listening to music.  i just fade back to a different time in my life.  then i went on to sing the soundtrack of Almost Famous in my head... "don't surround yourself with yourself"  anyway.  i go back and get stuck in time.  sometimes it's good, sometimes too much for the day to take on...but whateva, this is life.  not all moments are peachy. 

on a way way different note, i'm a fully funtioning human being right now.  i think i should stop this ramble and go enjoy the day...until i'm crowded with little people. 

i'm being very self-serving today, and i really really like it.

i contradict myself constantly.  i just feel the need to say that.

Even after

All this time
The sun never says to the earth,

"You owe Me."

Look
What happens
With a love like that,
It lights the
Whole
Sky.

the mastery of love:

by don miguel ruiz

it's difficult to try to be what you are not.  being what you are doesn't require any effort.  when you become wise, you accept yourself the way you are, and the complete acceptance of yourself becomes the complete acceptance of everyone else.

treat your body with all your love, honor, gratitude and respect.  when you make it your goal to adore your own body and accept yourself completely, you are learning to have a perfect relationship with anyone else you are with.

if you can heal yourself, then you are going to be ready for a relationsip without fear, without need.  if you and your partner each work on yourselves, you will see how quickly progress is made.

Love is compassionate and respectful, but doesn't feel sorry for anyone.  If someone falls, compassion help you to say, "stand up.  you can do it." compassion comes from respect, and is the result of knowing that others are strong enough and intelligent enough to make their own choices.

you are the force that plays with your mind and uses your body as it's favorite toy to play and have fun with.  that is the reason you are here:  to play and have fun.  you are born with the right to be happy and enjoy life.  you are not here to suffer.

Nothing but time will make a difficult transition easier. Give it a while.


There's no need to wear your heart on your sleeve. The rest of the world doesn't have to know your innermost secrets if you don't want them to. Shut the door, put your head down and turn inward for however long it takes to make yourself feel better. Call a friend or a loved one if you need to. No matter what else happens, it's important for you to take care of yourself.

you you who are beyond me I imagine that you lie down upon the earth and I am the earth there the fine, white tendrils sprout from your body, so that you are anchored onto mine until it is impossible to tell whether you grow into me or from me -john w sexton-

Love the Questions ". . . Have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don't search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer. I beg you to stop . . . looking outside. No one can advise you or help you – no one. There is only one thing you should do. Go into yourself . . . into the very depths of your heart. Dig into yourself for a deep answer. . . Be attentive to what is arising within you, and place that above everything you perceive around you. What is happening in your innermost self is worthy of your entire love."

If you could get rid of yourself just once, The secret of secrets Would open to you. The face of the unknown, Hidden beyond the universe Would appear on the Mirror of your perception. ~Rumi

Current mood:  loved

this is how i want to forever love and be loved-
"My love for you has no strings attached. I love you for free."

love without attachment.  love without expectations or assumptions.

i loved myself long before you even existed in me.
and i will love myself (and be okay) when you're gone.  

people worry too much.  analyze too much.  what about just enjoying someones company?  loving them because they are wonderful and true.  loving them as a person. 

live in today.  who knows what will happen tomorrow?  loving people feels so good...why deny yourself of that right just because you're scared of what if...

but it all starts with you.  you, the girl who doesn't love herself enough.  or the boy.. whoever you are.  because in reality.  you can't love another until you TRULY love yourself.  you have to know and believe you'll be okay no matter what, even if someone chooses to not love you in return.

therefore you put yourself in a position of strength, of trusting and loving yourself.  loving another (who is hopefully as wonderful as you are)  is just an added bonus.  :)   and yes, i get hurt, you get hurt.  we all get fucking hurt sometimes.  if it's not meant to be...so be it.  all will only make you stronger. hopefully you'll learn more about yourself in the process too.

there's my pep talk for the day.  i feel good.  maybe you should too.
