Soundtrack: For Someone Else - Gaia Riva.
L'odio si tocca con mani argentate,
l'amore non lo senti e ti si ramifica dentro come le radici di una quercia.
L'odio lo respiri ogni singolo giorno,
l'amore lo percepisci una volta e diventi uno schiavo.
L'odio è,
l'amore non sarà mai.

My baby is grown ;(
She really wanted pierced ears for her b-day. She researched it: asked her friends how much it hurt, how hard it was to clean them, how long she had to wear starter earrings. She set her mind to it.... even though she is completely afraid of needles, I honestly thought she was going to back out once she was in the chair...
She said, "momma, is it okay if I cry?" I gave her full permission to cry (our rule for shots is that you can cry but not wail so loudly that it requires 4 nurses to quiet the room down... if you want your treat. OR you can be a wild banshee and get nothin' at all. trust me folks, we've been scorned in a couple offices.) And then, THEN... this look of sheer determination came over her face... her game face, her shoulder to the metal face.... and she didn't utter a word. She was so proud of herself; and I was very happy for her. They are beautiful earrings. We clean them 3 times a day. And she has an entire catalog of 'fancy' ones waiting for her in 6 weeks :)
Day three hundred one/365.
In school, I learned that tomatoes were once considered to be naturally poisonous. It was in colonial America that a man is said to have stood in the town square, and, in the interest of disproving the notion, he ate a tomato in public view. He was promptl arrested for attempted suicide. When he never even got sick, he was released. I wish I could remember his name, or more details (what town was it?).
This year, people are afraid to buy tomatoes in markets and in restaurants, for fear of salmonella.
So, we decided to grow our own -- on the back deck!
Poor Spock, he was afraid to walk onto the jetty and looked to Mirjam for help...
Just look at his toes!
Impression of some of the photos exhibited in the inner court of Het Dolhuys, the Dutch Museum of Psychiatry in Haarlem. The name of the exhibition "Afraid of Cauliflower" refers to one of the young patients, an autistic boy who had developed a fear of several kinds of food. The original photos were made by Erik Christenhusz, accompanying texts are written by utrechtman. The exhibition runs till September 2008 www.hetdolhuys.nl
Esta en vos, en mi y en él. Es parte de cada uno, nos forma y nos desforma cuantas veces quiere (aunque todo corre por nuestra cuenta). Podemos enfrentarlo y superarlo. Podemos ir en camino a derribarlo y que nos sobrepase sin ningun dificultad y volvamos al estado inicial. Pero sin valentia, sin metas, sin un objetivo, no hay resultados. Hay posibilidades de que te lo propongas y fracases, pero siempre es mejor que encerrarse en una burbuja de MIEDO.
"I've been afraid of changing becuase I've built my life around you. But time makes bolder. Children get oder and I'm getting older, too."
Looking back in my life I have grown so much. I am so much more mature than I was a year ago, even 6 months ago. This has been a tough year in every possible way. I've learned that when things don't go our way, we can't do much about it, we have to accept it. Life doesn't wait on you to get back on your feet.
Life is hard, that is not new. But you can't give up on your dreams because life is being a pain in your butt. Life will always have its obstacles. But there's gotta be something more, there's gotta be more than this to it. I am a doer. I do things. I make things happen. My dreams will happen.
I'm sure I will be disappointed many times in my life, but I am "ready" to whatever lies ahead. I want new. New faces, new places, new experiences. I still have so much to learn about life. I am a full gorwn woman with some growing up to do.
"I've accepted the fact that we can't be, but I've also accepted that you're going to be that one person I carry with me for the rest of my life, the one that is always going to make my heart jump a little and my stomach tie up in knots no matter how happy I am otherwise... no matter how long its been."
And I am okay with that for now. I really am, and it feels good. To be free from you in a way. I feel great. and I feel like if I never heard from you ever again, I'd could live with it.
So here's to me. Here's to how strong I've become. Without you. I stand tall today thanks to my God who never left my side. He was there when you weren't and He always will be.
I know I can do anything through Christ alone. And oh, I promise, I will do everything I can to make my dreams come true.

The look of pure fear one gets when realizing they are on fire... The result of a second curtain flash & long exposure
Just think: the fate of the free world may hinge on the inebriated whims of a liquored-up lizard.
