Day Three: ( A Photo That Makes You Smile)
I loved these bracelets! They were so bright and sparkly and fun. One even made its way back to me and I passed it on one more time. Also, all the ideals I strive to keep in my life. I been "thinkin' 'bout somethin'" recently. I am exactly where I wanted to be in my life right now. I feel like I've been working so hard to get my shit back together the last year and a half. I have finally arrived. It feels so good. I've been in the healthiest relationship I've had in my entire life with the most wonderful woman. I feel home for once, which is so relieving, healing, surprising and affirming. My psych class is also awesome and I am excited for what the rest of the semester will teach me. My life has been drastically changed in the last few months and I am in awe. I love that I am so adaptable. I think you need to be in order to get through anything. Change is tough, but immobility=stagnancy=lame(or for the more dramatically flaired/death.)

Day Two: (A photo of yourself over a year ago)
This was sometime in 2007. Before my face had any extra holes in it! This was after my 21st birthday, so in the fall I think. Definitely representative of how I felt back then. Used to smoke so much pot. Was convinced it was "changing my life." I suppose it was, just not in the way my mind thought it was.

The Invitation- Oriah Mountain Dreamer
It doesn’t interest me
what you do for a living.
I want to know
what you ache for
and if you dare to dream
of meeting your heart’s longing.
It doesn’t interest me
how old you are.
I want to know
if you will risk
looking like a fool
for love
for your dream
for the adventure of being alive.
It doesn’t interest me
what planets are
squaring your moon...
I want to know
if you have touched
the centre of your own sorrow
if you have been opened
by life’s betrayals
or have become shrivelled and closed
from fear of further pain.
I want to know
if you can sit with pain
mine or your own
without moving to hide it
or fade it
or fix it.
I want to know
if you can be with joy
mine or your own
if you can dance with wildness
and let the ecstasy fill you
to the tips of your fingers and toes
without cautioning us
to be careful
to be realistic
to remember the limitations
of being human.
It doesn’t interest me
if the story you are telling me
is true.
I want to know if you can
disappoint another
to be true to yourself.
If you can bear
the accusation of betrayal
and not betray your own soul.
If you can be faithless
and therefore trustworthy.
I want to know if you can see Beauty
even when it is not pretty
every day.
And if you can source your own life
from its presence.
I want to know
if you can live with failure
yours and mine
and still stand at the edge of the lake
and shout to the silver of the full moon,
“Yes.”
It doesn’t interest me
to know where you live
or how much money you have.
I want to know if you can get up
after the night of grief and despair
weary and bruised to the bone
and do what needs to be done
to feed the children.
It doesn’t interest me
who you know
or how you came to be here.
I want to know if you will stand
in the centre of the fire
with me
and not shrink back.
It doesn’t interest me
where or what or with whom
you have studied.
I want to know
what sustains you
from the inside
when all else falls away.
I want to know
if you can be alone
with yourself
and if you truly like
the company you keep
in the empty moments.

What did you feel after reading this? Did you relate it to somebody else in your life? Read it again and only think about yourself and your own journey.
I am so excited for my Psychology class this semester. This is the excersice we did today at the end. The instructor read us this poem twice, once so we could listen, a second time to listen again and relate it to ourselves only. It's only the second day and I am already inspired and grateful for the impeccable timing the universe has bestowed upon me in this crazy, whirlwind kind of life.
