I was talking on the phone with a dear friend today and I felt my filter rush right out of my body. It was like a bird that's been sitting in my mouth and I heard it's tiny little wings fly by as it left it's cave and fly right out into the sky. Just fluttering by. a tiny little trickle of wind and then it was gone. See ya. maybe not forever. but for today. and it felt so indescribably liberating and beautiful that I just wondered, why haven't I been doing this all along?
The answers for that are, of course, the logical (or irrational, depending on how you want to see it) ones. everthing that has to do with psychology and ego. and all of our unique and not so unique complexes that enter into our bodies as we grow into ourselves.
So. there it is.
Now, tell the truth.
Let's just try it. Not the momentous truth, or the secret truth, just The Truth.
and people will react how they will and we will react back how we will. and neither of us is responsible for the other person's reaction. We are. and they are. and we happen to exist together in the same time on the planet.
So let's bump up against each other, let's make noise, play, get messy, Fall down.
Let's Live.
That's the hope and the experiment. from day to day. one day at a time.
Cause I've got sixty years to figure it all out.
