Shiny dreams of pink satin, the quest for otherworldly grace and worthiness. These I let go of too.

This is a gift for my friend, Michael. If you’ve seen me dance with a guy here on the blog- that’s Michael. Some years ago, seven? Eight? I found myself at the bottom of a well, very far from myself. I wanted to dance. I emailed him and he said I could come to Amsterdam to work with him. We hadn’t seen each other in a bunch of years. Michael? You totally saved me. And you taught me everything I know about improvisation and lots about hard work and love and leaving my hair down. Happy birthday. This one’s for you.
Save Me by Aimee Mann from the Magnolia soundtrack.

In Tara Brach’s Radical Acceptance she suggests that when difficult feelings come up, things we don’t want to think about, scary dark places take over, say to yourself, “This Too”.
Be with it. Don’t run.
I say the same about all the different parts of myself. The Easily digested and The Harder to swallow.
So this video came together and I am saying….This too. (The vid was recorded to a Lupe Fiasco song, but when I overlaid this one it practically edited itself.)

I’m wondering why we long for stuff. Love. Good things. Peace.
And when they show up
We feel afraid to binge
Already waiting in preparation for the pleasure to leave
As if
This beautiful moment must not be savored – we might grow dependent.
So instead
To only eat half of the piece, we stay in willy nilly
Don’t hurt me too bad kind of limbo.

I want to binge.
On love and life and
I want to stop preparing for the bad news
It’s coming. Of course.
But at the end, you know, as I lay dying?
Many binges of present mind love and fully being in some moments so they are burned in my memory.
Just this.

Who I love and how I love them is always with me.

Pretty much speaks for itself. I don’t usually use music this fresh, but Kanye and Nicki Menaj got under my skin. All the way to the monster. Have at it.
