I'm tired of doing the right thing. Most of my waking dreams revolve around some completely irresponsible act... where I throw off the shackles of life's ennui and dive into a pool of risk. And as tempting as they are, for the last four and a half years, they remained two-dimensional dreams. But not much longer. A change of venue yesterday ushered me into a great talk with Bruce. Well, the words coming out of his mouth were great talk... mine could be described more accurately as "great vent". He did what Bruce does best: got me all fired up. He has this special way of kicking my ass at the same time he's lending me a hand to help me back up. When the conversation was over, I had ideas screaming in my head that even a day later are impossible to quiet. Invigorating! Slides are flashing inside my head, illuminating pictures from stories that I love about people waking up and walking out. About that moment of perfect calm when things make sense, trepidation vanishes, and sincerity just happens. Imagine the possibilities of that kind of fearlessness. biggest kiss... ...kristen |
