Shock : Land

Hello Feel Gooders!

I didn’t have a specific topic to speak to today, but I’m feeeeeling generally good which is awesome. I wanted to just put up a brief TFFG for today then and write to you impromptu organically and from the heart.  

When I started this blog back in May I wasn't really sure what if anything would come of it. I was in a state of shock, really. Personal emotions were lofty, stability was a shadow concept and direction was more of poetic scribble.

I knew that I had to stick to principals because there was an echoing mousy voice in my mind that was giving me carte blanche to be an absolute douche bag. I narrowly escaped the possibility of suiting up into a different life in which my pain was a badge foraged in anger, justifying my new and unruly rage for the world.

But in reflection, meditation, love and support I was able to hold firm to proper principals and my conscious was able to stay aligned with my heart. More or less I've been able to make art from pain, and with all of you at my side.

Thanks to the many, many friends and family that have been there for me over the last year, have participated in this blog and stood for me when I could not.  Your love, your messages and your support mean the world to me – It’s amazing each week or entry to hear from various people on how I touched your life, or when what you say touches mine. The variety in which this comes, the beauty it’s inspired is so SO powerful for me, and nothing could be better.

Thank you all from the very, very bottom of my heart, your interactions with me will never be forgotten.
