Finally getting around to answering the words meme. If you want me to give you words, comment with "Words!"
Peace – something that I do wish for. A peace of soul, a peace of mind, even peace between people. It is hard to find, harder to achieve but a worthwhile goal.
Illuminate – If taking about illumination as art – it’s not something I do much of anymore. I found someone who is better at it than I so I let her have the headaches. But I do dabble in it from time to time. If talking about illuminate as in light up – I like most places on the darker side, a cave like feel. Plus lots of light hurts my eyes. If talking about illuminate as in to educate – I’m always looking to be illuminated about something
Boss – A good man. I miss him a lot. He was often misunderstood (even by those who knew him best) but he worked hard to be a certain kind of person, didn’t always succeed, but he tried. I can only hope to be 1/10th of the person he was.
Loss – I’ve had too much in the last decade. I’m ready for a break now
Loyalty – Incredibly important to me. Loyalty however does not mean blindly following. But when I make a promise to someone, I do my best to keep it. And a promise to me is a version of loyalty (even if it is for just a small amount of time)
Family – we need family. Be it blood kin or the kind of family we make ourselves. Sometimes we are lucky enough to have blood kin be part of the family we make and choose. My immediate family is not the same as others. I do not care. It is what works for me and them and we have been able to keep each other sane for many many years. I do not care what the “legal definition” of family is. My definition works just fine for myself.
Wolves – My spirit totem. My soul self. Incredibly beautiful and dangerous creatures. I love visiting them when I can and playing and jus sharing that “quiet moment”.
Service – Is Love Made Visible. It is not the only way to express love. And there are different kinds of service. I serve when and where I can to those to whom I choose. I do not serve in such a way that it becomes slavery. There must be a joy in service or it just becomes a burden.
home-ownership – the best and worst thing that ever happened to me. I hate how it happened. I hate why it happened. And I hate not being able to call the landlord when the garbage disposal dies or the washing machine blows a hose. But the house is mine. I own it. Not even the bank has a say in my property. I can do what I want to it. Though at tax time it’s kinda scarey.
yarn – something fun to play with. I just wish I could play with some of the really cool stuff and not have allergic reactions to it.
