The Vomitlicious Holiday Is Upon Us (by James Leland Ludeau III from Lafayette,LA)

My friend Amanda and I call Valentine's Day "vomitlicious". It's disgusting how commercialized it all is. Even more ridiculous that the decorations and advertisements start the day after Christmas. In my opinion, the commercialization of love is gross. And furthermore, they try to make you feel less than if you're not giving someone a card, some chocolates, flowers, and having dinner on Feb 14...i say fuck that! Feel great about yourself. Be grateful that you're not with any of the assholes you've put up with in the past. Have dinner with YOU. Have a glass or a bottle os champagne and toast yourself. You're a badass survivor who doesn't settle. You're not desperate enough to sacrifice everything you are and who you are to be in a relationship.
My point is not to be negative or bitter. I believe in love. i do. And i congratulate all those couples out there celebrating on V-Day. Even if it makes me vomit in my mouth a little. I'm just saying that if you find yourself single on this day, it's for a reason!!! Everything has reason!! Even unreasonable things. Scratch the surface and you will see. Feel good about yourself on this day. Love starts with you after all. Figure out what you want and what you'll accept in life and don't waver.
Xoxo and carry on.....

Anxiety

  Anxiety is like a flash flood. You’re standing in the most glorious sunshine, unaware of the rain falling high up in the mountains. Far away. You’re going about your day. Trying to stay in your gratitude for the beauty around you. And then..BAM!! Out of seemingly nowhere a rushing torrent sweeps you off of the safety you were standing in. It swells around you. Threatening. Ominous. It rips your peace away like tree roots. Until everything around you becomes a swirling mass of debris. No sight of your safe place. When it dissipates you’re left in the mud. With the muck. In the remains of who you were before it came. You’re left to contemplate the cleanup and the rebuild. What practice can you implement that will keep the flash floods away? Can you form a dam with prayer? Breathing? Yoga? Meditation? Incense? What foundation can you set that will keep you from being swept away again? Each cycle of this is a lesson. With each cycle a new you is born. A version who sifts through the rubb

She Dreams of the Desert

She dreams of the desert  Of its dangerous beauty  The unknown  He dreams of the desert  He knows the safety it holds for him  His long time only friend  She calls to them both  For very specific reasons  Seasons  Of their lives are different  But the desire is the same  The desert is a mermaid  With a sweet siren song  What you make of her  Becomes your fate Once you’ve answered her call

Took A Greyhound Bus To My Love

Image
  Took a Greyhound bus to my love   Waiting for me in Texas In a necklace  Story of a nexus  That grew into love  A love that connects us  Across state lines  Swamp to the desert  One leads to the other  Landscapes fade and change  Wide open range  Leaving plenty of space to fill with love  Daydreams  Of real things  That keep us intertwined  Took a Greyhound bus to my love  So I could dream the whole way  Of the way  She makes me feel  Smiles on my face for real  Green eyes sparkling through the night  Holding my baby tight  Wheels on the road  Turning round and round  Like the feels in my heart  Hitting like a dart  Pulling up on the target  Of my affection  No question  It’s been worth the whole ride
