building...

takes time. It takes a foundation upon which to build. It takes resources and financing in order to propel it forward. Building is a process which takes time and dedication. It takes sacrifice. It takes giving of oneself until there is nothing left to give... and then giving that little bit extra that will inevitably, tip the scales of balance in the right direction.

This weekend... the tools of the trade are being packed so that I can venture out into the big ol' world of creative genius. I can't imagine a more exciting time as this project begins to grow and bear fruit. I'm truly flattered that my talents are being utilized and that after all the wheat has been separated from the chaff, glad that I am part of the kernel and not the light fluff that floats away on the wind.

of love

‎"When love is accompanied with deep intimacy, it raises us to the highest level of human experience. In this exalted space, we can surrender our egos, become vulnerable and know levels of joy and well-being unique among life experiences. We attain a glimpse of the rapture that can be ours. Boundaries are blurred, there are no limitations and we rejoice in union. We become one and at the same time-both." Leo Buscaglia

I've had this... I've touched it. Truly, one of the best feelings in the world. I am so truly blessed that the Universe has seen fit to let me touch such greatness and to have such a special person in my life to share it with.

dear 'friends'

... I am doing GREAT these days. Life is, contrary to the wishes of meine feinde (not to be confused with meine Freund) , better than could be expected. There's something to be said for being honest and up front about what one thinks. Yup. And there's even MORE to be said for working with folks to find resolution to difficult situations.

so...quickly and in a nutshell (as I'm busy busy with work)

The children are GREAT

work (Dave's Gourmet) is GREAT

work (independent) is growing and GREAT

Personal Life is coming along quite nicely

Personal Development is GREAT

so all in all... life is wonderful. We're all working hard to achieve our dreams and having the adventure of a lifetime doing it.

Booyaka, Booyaka, BOOYA!
