RE: A Dynamic and (hopefully) Delicious Day! - #Ulog Entry No. 3

Lovely to "see" you @jaynie!

I've been poking at the edges of the U-loggy thing, too... and pondering the fact that it has taken me 18 months (almost) to return to doing (blog wise) what came mostly naturally 15 years ago.

Made me ponder all the many things we seem to "unlearn" about our own authenticity, all in service of trying to do it "properly," except that properly is an exercise in following other people's directives rather than our own hearts.

That — in turn — made me realize (and empathize with) the millions of people who get dragged along like sheeple... it can be hypnotic and strangely alluring, and I'm not sure why, because it's ultimately drudgery. Fresher in in your mind, perhaps, since you only recently closed the print shop... but still.

So you have a creeper... sadly, it seems part and parcel of the territory of being a gorgeous woman. Not being one, myself, I wouldn't know... but that's what I'm told...

Ha! Love that - what exceptionally accurate words! I was thinking the other day about my piano and how I used to love playing. I only ever learned to read basic music, but could play almost anything just by listening to it. Every day after college I would come home and compose tunes for like three hours - I don't know where they came from, but they were there. I sold my piano about 18 years ago (gawd im old lol) and I was thinking last night that no matter how long you shoved me in front of a piano now, I doubt I would be able to remember anything I created... sad... Although, I am certain I would be able to create NEW stuff... I think lol!

hahahaha @ you being a beautiful woman.... listen, the make-up industry can work wonders these days hey ;) LOL!
