&lt;p&gt;Last night on Larry King 

Tammy Faye and Deepak  wow 


Surreal? Profound? 
I watched at first because it was on almost like passing a train wreck I couldnt stop staring

http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/bestoftv/2007/07/19/lkl.tammy.faye.god.cnn


then I watched from growing curiosity and stayed until it was over in awe 

Years back when the surreal house was on I happened to catch the series where she was on ... I liked her what can I say ...

I so admire her faith in her faith and compassion in her heart that she holds tight
that and the fact that she can actually blink with all that mascara on


Deepak kind of summed my thoughts up and made me smile 


We just all need to believe 


that belief makes us alive and connected 

and in love 

and with those things present 

anything is possible 







post note watch this, Id be willing to bet now that she got that interview out she dies within this week ....

so crazy this life 

smiles 


thinking of what else I can share 


I found this amusing 

http://www.darkroastedblend.com/2007/04/top-office-pranks-and-april-fools-day.html


and really liked the music from this band 

The Orange Lights 
check um out:) 



http://www.myspace.com/theorangelights

Have a lickable lovely weekend 

be at peace when you breathe and smile 


just cuz thats where the fun is 

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Love and smiles 
A 


&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;for those faint of heart  ~laughs ~ I just wanted to say that 


But I didn't sleep last night so what ever I write may have no fluency or meaning..in-fact I haven't slept well for the last three nights 

three strange nights 

I would be willing to bet that last nights fun was due to drinking an iced vanilla coffee from mccrappys ...after 800pm 

okokok i know one whos kinda sensitive shouldn't do such things BUT Im so sick of living with the shoulds at this moment in time 


I needed to feel alive again 

I think its the summer s relentless heat or the fact I havent been writing meditating or listening to good music 


wow 


that and my stupid cam broke again because I carelessly shoved it into my purse 


I know everything will get good again 
baby steppin till that point and breathin


kind of wild but sometimes when I dont sleep I go into a creative awake dreamstate with the right music like this moment 
Im listening to a podcast off Itunes called 
Percussion Lab presents 
the name
Boltfish Recordings Showcase Mix

from 12/15/05

if you can check it out very sweet indeed 



kisses and love to any who still check this out 
wishing you all whatever it is that your wishing for ;) 


love to all 

mm m
smiles 


feeling better already

&lt;p&gt;little story for ya all:) 

This lil kitty is the sweetest lil critter. His name is Chubchubs Buckley. Chub chubs cuz hes round and cute, and Buckley because he loves to watch Jeff buckley on youtube. 

Anyway... 



I was holding him one evening, as he is almost like a rag doll he will let you turn him upside down and over and just love him ...  Thinking out loud, I say " We need to get him fixed" ...

My 8 yr old looks at me very seriously, and says back .."Why momma, where is he broken?"

Heehee oh man out of the mouths of babes ...

so cute that pure naive state of being. 

Well wishes for love and laughter to you all! 


mmm breathes

Love 
A 
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;on a tues morning ...

SMILING 

just because 
Im alive 


well that and I just meditated that white light kind of meditation

Thinking on all the people in my life Im blessed to know and love 

Im listening to 
Erykah Badu
"I want you"

going to see if thats on you tube you must hear this woman's voice if you haven't yet:)
ok not even half of the full version but this will have to suffice 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0sNqO0r-QEQ

heres a bonus track since that last one was so choppy and short
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOAALV2xIK8

Walking into the other room after seeing I had no mail ..laughing as I talked like Plankton 

"Whattttt nooo mail? How could this be? 

How am I to have world domination when noone writes me notes on all the secrets of this life? what is GOING ON here? 

Can you hear Plankton saying that? 
I can ~ laughs ~ 

which means either I have mental issue or perhaps I should have gone into voice overs for cartoons


I love talking in silly ways 


I guess its really not to late to do the voice over thing 


Taking pictures ..note to self 
self you need to buy some new rechargeable batteries 


Things to do today 

finish lay out on in design 

not to big a stretch ~hahahahaha!~


which means I had better get bustin my butt 

Love to you all and all to love 
mmmmm hugs the world and smiles :) 


A


&lt;/p&gt;

      <description>


&lt;p&gt;sings his love song ...
My thoughts drift back ..to days past by 


Mockingbirds ballad is reminiscent of mischievous adventure s
beginnings and ends ... deep connections to the mystery nights darkness holds

You know the singing is from bachelor birds to attract the female mocking bird? 
I didn't!  I digress from what I came to really share ~grin~ ...Which is


Mother s and Vultures.... who knew? 
---------------------------------------------------------------------
This mothers day dining with my family, and more family.

My brother saunters in. After squeezing into the two by two booth 
and ordering a coke 


says, "I guess Im going to die today..." 


I look at him with this look of shut up you total dork ~ then ask 
"Ok Darien why would this be?" 

"Well ," he replies, "I was riding my motorcycle down the street and out of nowhere 
fly these two huge vultures almost making me wipe out. Dont you think thats a sign of bad luck ? I mean they are birds of prey and death, right? " 


I think for a moment and think the thought sometimes things arent what they would seem ... 

Everyone around the table is apparently thinking the same thing and saying just as much 

"no no no they probably mean just the opposite!" trying to reassure him 
 
I offer " what would it matter anyway its not like it really means anything ." To which he counters me " 
yeah you of all people the one who is always looking for signs ..."
 I smile knowing he's right 



then he closes with some line from "The Alchemist's Handbook"

about paying attention to signs 


and we drop it 


Later that evening inspired to find the meaning of what a vulture represented ..

I googled this bit of info

Thanks for bringing this up. When I dug into what vultures represent, I was surprised to learn they are a symbol of a devoted mother. Many of us here have thought Irma Pince, the Hogwarts' librarian is really Eileen Prince in disguise (I'm a Prince = Irma Pince) who is Severus Snape's mother. I think the question of whether Neville's grandmother was messing with his memory went unresolved, but from this vulture symbolism, we might at least infer that if she is doing something it is for well-intentioned reasons.

From Wikipedia:
In Southern Africa, the name for a Nubian vulture is synonymous with the term applied to lovers, because these vultures are always seen in pairs, mother and child remaining closely bonded together. Pairing, bonding, protecting, and loving are essential attributes associated with the vulture's size and its ability to soar high up in the sky. The Egyptians considered the vulture an excellent mother, and its wide wingspan was seen as all-encompassing and providing a protective cover to its infants. The vulture hieroglyph was the uniliteral sign used for the glottal sound (3) including words such as mother, prosperous, grandmother, and ruler.



weird huh? 


I called to tell him and we both laughed ....


strange life I'd say , and wouldnt want it any other way 

Happy exploring 

Love and smiles 
A 








&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I got this today and again I like it so much Im compelled to share ...




------------------
Do not be alarmed, alissa, as you walk down the path of life, to suddenly find you don't have the foggiest idea of how your grandest dreams will one day come to pass. This is a good thing. A really good thing.

Just keep walking...
     The Universe

Thoughts become things... choose the good ones! &#174; 
&#169; www.tut.com &#174;

alissa, such confusion over the "hows" creates the space you need to enjoy the journey and the space I need to blow your mind. Just keep walking.

Thanks to 
http://zennie.zaadz.com/

Always looking 

Hugs and smiles 
Love 
A &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;

You know there is something to be said about the way we connect through our vibrations 
I know I know 


I get all hyper when I start talking about this form of energy or what ever it is. I do not profess to be a scholar in any shape or form ...or perhaps I should take that back as quickly as I let my fingers utter it..for I am an investigator of life ..


I do a sound mantra meditation every morning ... I like to do it along with the cd I have. 
All it is is humming ..as loud as you can for 20 minutes 

Then it stops, there is music .... it is some of the most ....im at a loss for the right word but i love it.

So you sit there for ten minutes just being. 


Here is my strange observation 

There are times I want to go off key with the rest of the humming 


When I first did this meditation I was in a group of ten people, we were seated in a circle and again we followed along with this same cd I have ...The interesting thing is I needed to go off key there as well. I wondered if I drove the people sitting next to me crazy ~ l` 


Now here is the curious part each time that I would deviate from the 'in tune' humming I would start to cry .... 
past reflections past hurts past negativity comes bubbling up ....
I ve even had truly epiphanic moments ...

When in tune the connection just buzzes around making everything feel good ...


So I wonder ..whats the connection with being off key? 



I have to get back to work now ~ grin ~ 
my camera says "Im cooled off, get cookin'!"....


Till soon... be in where ever you  need to be for the moment you re living 

Peace and blessings 

Love 
A &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;

...Waiting for a phone call to get some odds and ends wrapped up ...writing a bio for a web page ...and thinking on how it is that I let people choose to see me ... and how some only get this very edited version 


version 4.5 lissa 


I dont think that some people can process the amount of energy I have to share tho and for those I hold back ...but that kind of sucks that they get cheated the full ride ~grin~ 


But such is life i suppose 


We can accept what we can process, and when we reach our fill of energy we have our circuit breakers as not  to overload. 

Its all good. I do the same thing.... 


I ve got so much crap work to do ..ie cleaning and paper work odds and ends I get overwhelmed and choose to let my mind breathe in other ways ..but the funny thing is if you dont deal with some of your crap crap it only sits there festering until its jacked your strength so ONWARD just do it as long as you never give up you ll get there ..one way or another ...


thanks to all the GREAT minds here that have just completely inspired me these past few weeks

&lt;p&gt;moments in time 

chocolate 
credulous
momentous
 
words wafting through my mind this morning 

blurbs of this 
fragments of that 

sound light how we perceive what is show to us for unraveling or just simply being 

Its mesmerizing how we all string things along to create our lives 

what we choose to see 
what we choose to do 
what we choose to live 



integrity 
honor 



looks around my desk, which makes me think back to another moment in time that and to the future but Im in my now ..all conceptual spaces rolled into one  


Its wild how things are set sometimes to go in orders

123

you can skip 2 and still get to three but it wont be the same 

variations 
pushing pulling the fabric of the universe to bend and contort to your own thoughts 
 
the things you have to do to arrive at various goals 

https://www.hado.net/hado/index.php

 incredible how much a words vibration has soooo much power 




listen to this You Tube video from Orbital in the background 
I love this song for abstract thinking, doing, being, ~and more ~ wicked smile~ 


Orbital "halcyon and on and on 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NEhM4Iwzff0

I dont  think they needed to add the space traveler ....for that reason I didnt care for this video 


I love you tube.... How pure is it that you can find almost every song that you love and then listen to it 
right now!?

be in your now today 

mmmm breathe and be 


now is GOOD!!!!!!




peace love and all good things to you 

Love 
A &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;i love the rain! 

I really do.
Not forever, and ever,  but every now and then. In stretches like we have been having, where its rained three days straight ... I totally love it. 


Rain allows me the freedom to be inside, all cozy drawing, or doing odd projects that some how never get finished ... and puddles,~ heehee ~  puddles are the BEST!!!...Walking barefoot down the roads, jumping in, laughing ..splish splashing ...

I guess theres something about water thats just alive you can feel the way it reverberates with in all living things ...and to be washed clean ..fresh ..mmm the smell of the air ..the way the nights stars look so pristine and the sky so black ...

I can remember back to when I was a kid... We were lucky enough to have a portion of our patio with an overhang that afforded us shelter from the elements ... 

I think back on this one time...

(((blooooplie blooopie blooopie )))) thats a flash back sound in case you're wondering ~grin))))))))) 

Returning from the store with our booty. My brother, and I, had each picked out one new cereal  ..we grabbed them, a couple of those enamel colored metal bowls, milk, and what not... then ran out to the table. We set up the boxes so that we couldnt see each other, then repeatedly tried to piss each other off , by peeking around the box partition.  ....the rain falling  falling drops the smell of the sweet lucky charms and the humidity culminating together with the earthy smell wafting from the gardens dirt near by mmmm a curtain of mist ..the sounds plip plip plip drop splash ....  ...just thinking back to that make s me so happy ...wild how your mind banks stuff ... ...I wonder if he remembers 



I guess I had best get to what ever jumps at me first here 


smiles to all 



then splashes you !!!

GRINS!!!!


do I have any links? 


yeah check this out 

go make some music!

that link courtesy of catsmeow 
http://paxpeace.zaadz.com/
and her amazing mind trek ~ grin!!!

Im listening to: the rain, an idling trash truck, and the whir of my fish tank filter 

but if you need a song how about...
 
if you only could / Donna the Buffalo

Its perfect for the rain 
and dancing in kitchens 
or kissing under honeysuckle bushes

anyone for puddle jumping? 

 I'm game head on over ! 

peace and love :) 
A

I love where Hi narrates this


VOICE OVER
		These were the happy days, the salad 
		days as they say...



Perspective 

energy 

Why and how did I get so lucky in this life that I can see everything I ve been so blessed with having? 

I mean even down to watching an ant crawl around ... .I just love it! 


fascinated and intrigued by what nature and the universe have given me to learn 

Accepting of and sharing the infinite good that there is to find 

and finding the beauty in just simply breathing sometimes 



ahhh 

I stumbled across this song and for some reason just love the beat 
the song 
Cay's Cray

Have you seen this funny video? 
There is only one lil blip in that skit 

The man should wait until AFTER she throws her card to stand up like he does ... just my two cents 


check it out off of spraygraphics blog :) 

http://spraygraphic.zaadz.com/blog

too funny



What else is on my mind .... 


Just trying to get my Children's book alive and kicking 



Ill post the postcard I designed for it ... 

I did get some much appreciated feed back from the event it went to this past weekend , which is just what I needed:)

May you be blessed and blessed be

Peace smiles and Love 
A

&lt;p&gt;We will start with,
of all things..... 

comforters...You know the kind you find covering your bed.


Last week , one night ... I set to tuck my two little girls into bed.

My littlest one ..in her snugly wee voice asked,

"Mom..what are comforters made out of? " 
To which she quickly added, "Is it cotton?" 

I nodded my head, adding, "Yeah thats right. They also stick some of that filler stuff, or down, in the middle to make it all puffy...." 

I looked at her. I could see her mind still working, then she says, 

"So is Sierras made from whales?" 

I smiled at her questioningly... to see her try NOT to smile, and asked her, 
"Now why would you think that it would be made from whales?"
 
To which she without a moments hesitation told me, 
"Because mom,  its BLUE!"

AT this point I finally caught on that she was playing me, laughing I asked her what hers was made from being pink, to which she answered " Pigs!"


Thinking about mine being white, I asked ..." Ok so Sies is made from whales cause its blue, yours is pigs because its pink...Since mine is white, what would it be?"

She smiled 
" and replied
" Unicorns of course!" 


silly me .. not to have guessed that huh? 



Smiles a sunshine smile 



Happy Spring
Love to all and all to love
