My heart is your home

If you call 818-768-1802, extension 7 in March, April or May, 

you can hear actor Joe Spano 

rhapsodize about the wildflowers blooming 

in California that week

(via Atlas Obscura)

salt the earth with all the feelings
in your heart
and intensify the flavours of beauty

can't wait to see this in full bloom

I need beauty in my life

more than ever

Girolamo Pini 1614

you’re at the “can’t draw blood from a stone” level of being drained,

 in body, mind, and spirit.

Catherine Winter

the caterpillar does not bring

all its worldly possessions with it

into the chrysalis 

I did a lot of clearing out of all my possessions

I thought I was done and could move forward 

it turns out I have only scratched the surface

round 2 coming up

it will be a battle against lethargy. 

I wish I knew how to overcome it. 

someone told me they used to have to take meth

to do all the work it takes to sell on eBay

I get it

pepper trees

loving myself 

is allowing myself to rest

"You're a handsome Devil"

(whispers, "I want you")

just do it

she's on empty

fill her up

please

yes, intoxicating 

filled with joy 

full of joy

warm fuzzies

tortured by remorse

to all the moms 🌹

I was a feeling fellow enough, partial to the unfledged, unfostered, and unlucky; but Fortune has knocked me about since: she has even kneaded me with her knuckles, and now I flatter myself I am hard and tough as an India-rubber ball; pervious, though, through a chink or two still, and with one sentient point in the middle of the lump. Yes: does that leave hope for me?"

     "Hope of what, sir?"

     "Of my final re-transformation from India-rubber back to flesh?"

Jane Eyre

crow's nest

(crow's nest)

sometimes, what seems to be the cause of pain 

is in fact full of hidden beauty-which is more deeply experienced

when revealed

outer appearances can be deceiving 

always

yes it is!!

😊👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

on my way Darling

no more hiding

I want to stand in the sun
because I don't want to hide myself from you

sweet dreams of you

I am so happy to hear this

good news for me!!

Scents and Sense Abilities

a self-righteous attitude

benefits no one

least of all me

good night lover who counts the stars

100 strokes please

it's time for me to nestle

in you

I found this framed print in the alley

I decided to take action on being inspired by Asger Jorn 

hopefully by the time I'm done, you won't see the baby

only you will know it's there

(used portrait mode on my iPhone to take a portrait

of this portrait)

yes

I reckon that's the truth

and why would I ever settle for a lesser love

to begin with

the roses are in full bloom all over town

the bloom is full and the size of some of these roses

is mindblowing. 

not to mention the perfume. 

books do this to me
