Laughing. Letting go in someone's arms. People. Cars. People in cars. People dancing in their cars. Watching S. dance. Dancing. Learning new things...being patient with myself as I embrace new things. Being patient with others as they do the same.
I'd like to meet:
People that aren't afraid to be themselves. Genuine people. If you're genuinely happy, be happy. If you're angry, let that out and let it go. If you're sad, let that out too. If any of that is beneath the surface of some other presentation of being nice or artificial, then it just doesn't feel right. We all deserve the freedom to go to those places and let go. Anyone who can inspire me to challenge myself in both thought and action....and be patient in the process...and anyone who I can do the same for. Meryl Streep. Maya Angelou. My Greek gay great-uncle-ish relative who plays the piano George Pappastavro. Good friends that make me laugh and who I can make laugh and smile, and feel more joyful about life each time we hang out, even if just a little bit. ...and anyone who still thinks the sun shines out of my ass.
Music:
Pink Floyd...Tiesto...Tiesto LIVE. Chicane. Dave Mathews Band. Coldplay. Pointer Sisters. Not necessarily, but that just popped in my head, and it made me laugh. Madonna. Indigo Girls. Beatles. Classical. Christina Aguilera's voice is stunning. Britney, really? Timbaland. Fergie. Zeppelin. Steve Miller Band. Sarah Brightman. Sara McLachlan. Remixes of any of the above. Jacqueline Dupree. Adagio for Strings....to play, to listen or to dance to...
Movies:
Garden State. Whale Rider. Moulin Rouge. Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. LOTR...still want to have an all day marathon someday. La Mala Educacion. The Notebook. Amelie. White Chicks. Friday. Norbit. Any movies where guys dress as women. That shit makes me laugh. Especially black women. Movies that make me cry and laugh in the same sitting. Love Actually. Madea movies.
Television:
I don't own one. ........ok, so that changed too. I have one again, only for movies. Still no cable. Although I just got seasons of Friends and Will and Grace for xmas. Sweet. Those two going off air was why I got rid of TV in the first place. lol. wow, look at me. Brothers and Sisters...like nothing else.
Books:
Ask and It is given. Law of Attraction. Astonishing Power of Emotions. I AM discourses. The Four Agreements. An Astonishing Work Of Staggering Genius. A Million Little pieces (I don't give a shit if it was made up). A New Earth. The Secret Archives of the Vatican. The Alchemist. Veronika Decides to Die. The Moon Appears When The Water is Still.
Heroes:
My family...for being part of it with me from the get go, and for putting up with my ass always, and in all ways. My grandmother, because at 82 she drinks and smokes everyday, and she is still has a great sense of humor. Anyone who isn't afraid to let go of all they thought defined who they are. Those that realize that we can't, don't have to, and aren't meant to do it all on our own. I can learn a lot from those people.
