Journeys With Annie

In deciding to love someone, she dedicated her life to learning. For loving someone is like learning a foreign language. Will she enjoy learning it? Will it open her soul to a place she always knew, but just forgot? There’s a reachable space just skin deep and in the center of her chest that tingles warm when source pumps through her. A spicy chill that sparks her into alignment. Discover love over and over, and those moments aren’t fleeting. Surrender to learning keeps it all afloat.

I wrote this…and then i read a quote by Michael Chabon, “Never say love is ‘like’ anything…it isn’t.” Paradox of love…

Stay in love

And let him go…

Because it isn’t a fitness class!

It’s the way she effortlessly squats to clean a spot off the floor. It’s the way she slowly takes one stair at a time, bouncing a little, because each step deserves it’s moment. It’s adjusting the weight into balance so nothing  between heaven and earth is heavy. Then, she pauses for a breath before the words come forth.

It’s the way her eyes smile as she thanks the cashier, absorbing the wink of their hearts pulsing together.

It’s living life not only through her own eyes, but the eyes of all. Each life cherished. It’s knowing there is plenty, all around, all the time. Plenty of what? Well, every single thing the fingers can touch. And everything they can’t.
