DEL1: A Reminder

Serendipitously stumbled upon the murals of the Mission District. It's been awhile and these murals truly amaze me.

This mural is just a reminder of the reason why you started this Asher. Keep going.

Why not?

L1: Finally...

At last, I can do what I've wanted to do this entire week. Sit at a cafe, drink an iced latte and be immersed in the world of game of thrones. If you haven't read the books yet, YOU ABSOLUTELY MUST. They're unbelievably amazing.

Here's to a journey.

L2: Eyes Opened

I had a meeting last night with a community professional and he said something that caught my attention:
"What kind of fun profession isn't hard work?"


Through all the politics, the growing pains, and the harsh words, I still love Suitcase with all of my being. Challenges accepted.

D: Time is a funny thing

Time. It's a funny thing.
It's a friend. It's an enemy. It's a threat. It's a savior.
It runs the world. It's man-made. It moves forward. It's invisible. It's pushy. It's powerful. It won't stop. It's revealing. It's comforting. It heals.



When?

L1: You do You

Asher, this is your time.

Don't look to anyone. Live openly. Don't wait for anyone. Live fully. Don't listen to anyone. Live freely.

Edit: You have to look, wait, and listen Asher. Or else, you'd be alone

DE: Ecstasy

An orgasm?

Oh god. Yeah.

Asher, I need to introduce the guy that's fondling you right now. Quentin. He is the sexiest thing I've ever laid my eyes on and he is going to take you for a ride girl. You've already fallen for the guy because he brings you to the highest heights, taking you on the sweetest, hottest journey you've ever been on. But he comforts you all the while, a beam of support when you need it. Who is this wonderful god of a man? Well, he ain't a real boy that's for sure....

He's my brand-spankin new headphones - my Audio Technica M50s. I recently joined in the on small groupie we have of these amazingly crafted species. So a major shout-out to some friends - thanks JH and JYT!


It's going to be an amazing journey with this sexy guy. Yet, I cannot describe the excitement building up in me. It's similar to the buildup of a song.

The first beat hits. Paving the way for the start of the song, of the journey.
Your heart races. You feel a tingle. 

You start to hear all the different sounds increase and build. Maybe the guitar comes in or the violin this time. If you're lucky, it' the piano.
This ball, somewhere between your chest and your stomach starts to form. It's fiery red hot with a blue flaming center. 

The beat builds, grows louder and louder.
The sun is getting to be so big, it feels like you can't hold it all in and you're screaming to let it out, to let it all go.

The beat drops.
The sweetest release. The ball explodes silently. No sound. Pause. It's so powerful. 

Silence. The quiet entrance of the soft beat.
Ripples. The way a pebble dropped into a pond makes ripples that flow, the sun has reached all points of your body. It's ebbing back and forth, filling you UP. 



Is that what ecstasy feels like?

L2: Gandalf Always Knows Best


A silent reminder from a friend I've grown to be close to this past year of the wise words of Gandalf the Grey:

In all of this chaos, "All you have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to you."

Thanks SB
