New Journal


"Every Friday night they go out on the town. They wear strapless dresses to show off their tattoos, they fling their everyday cares out the window. They split a beer at the icehouse. Their grandchildren wonder what the neighbors think." . . . . "It is here where she must begin to tell her story".



This is a space for dream words. Love words. Made up words. Flying words, fall down and get up words. Get to know the sound of your own inner voice. Be creative. Be generous. Be Bold.


Thank you, Nae!

This is the first entry in my new journal!

Cheesy and all!


A healthy Space.
Where the land of the busy panic living
meet the calm weightless waters.
Where waiters make your seaside dinner an experience.
Where sailing has a way of eliminating all matters of the world.
Wine, cigars, and two new friends.
Life is what happens when we stop thinking about it.
A vacation of laughter is the healthy space.

Awe I love it! It's funny...I kept that journal in my extra bedroom after I got back from Seattle. Every time I went in there, I saw it and thought it would be forever before I actually was able to give it to you. Thank God for Monterey...and you being the one to find the perfect quote on the INSIDE of the journal :) Miss you!!

I'm not just commenting on this because you told me I'm a 'safe commenter'...just so you know. I was actually thinking, after three whole days of work, that I need this vacation again. And not in five years. It's funny how much subtle changes or slowing down can change so much or offer so much clarity. I can't help but think of that poor lady and her shoe. I felt like the worst person in the world for not jumping the wall to save that darn sandle!! Anyhow, I don't know if it is the water or the cigars and wine or the new friends or just the company we were in, but all of it makes me think I'm ready to go back! Please?

Seriosuly! That was the best soul-cleanser ive had in a long time. Next time we are spending a day at the Marina beach! I feel like we found gold that morning!
I think of that elderly lady so much! It was the best/worst silent movie ive ever seen! LOL
