Comment on I See Music – Kashmir by Erica Swanson

SOO lovely, thank you.

And SOO critical… this space. And what you need may be different than what I need and different again from what your friend needs. The point being that we all need something – and if we don’t have it, we’re, well… in need.

Never a cool place to be.

Sometimes it’s as simple as saying, “fine… one junk room”, and then loading it up to the rafters (if need be) to give yourself the breathing room you need everywhere else. Then you can get to it on your terms. When it suits you. And in the meantime, give yourself a liitle “AHHHH”.

Heaven knows we all need a little of that.

Cheers.

First this is beautiful. BUT more importantly, while having a convo with my friend at bedtime and both of us talking about how we felt the need to leave our homes when we wanted undistracted peace…

and the realization that THAT is soooo wrong…

I, of course, thought of you.

She and I didn’t want to face the clutter, didn’t have a room that felt serene, quiet, neat, spare to meditate, dream, read, or just sit in. And again, I thought of you.

And just how wrong that is, especially since my friend has the rooms to make that happen.

So, you are seeping in my friend.

Funny places. Now THAT’S an under-statement. And always at the wrong time… like when I’m standing in the grocery store line or waiting at a red light. And of course, ALWAYS when I’m listening to music.

Thanks for stopping by!

Inspiration comes in funny places, oui?

Love the idea board you put together for this imaginary space. Full of rich colours and luxurious textures. Mystery. Drama. Champagne and cigars.

I would like to curl up in one of those chairs – the bottom one is beckoning to me.

Great post, thanks Erica

Excellent advice. I think I’m going to push a few of my OWN buttons and see what comes up.

Thanks, Abby.

I’m with you on the craving for change. In certain areas of my life, I go after evolution like crazy. I’m the leader of the change it up pack! But in other areas, I put up a great fight against myself when I’m trying to change. Must press into that and see what’s going on.

Wow…I needed to read that statement today.

I fear NOT changing, being stuck, forever bound while the world evolves around me. It’s in the unfolding that I feel the most fear, yes, but also where I feel the most alive.

Of course, I think I just called myself a sociopath. Eeshk.

Hella YES. What is it encoded in our human nature that causes us to fear growth, change, unfolding? And are some people born without this fear gene> {I think so.} Do we call them sociopaths?
