News links aside, i have been maintaining this blog a few months now and feel some fresh fantasies are due. Believe in what moves you, gives thanks to it when the time is right and don't miss the quiet moments of wind through your hair, a hand on your neck, or a split second exchange of humanity, a glance, a shoulder bump, or what ever. We may have past lives, over souls, second chances, or inter-dimensional capacities but all we know for sure is what is here, in this moment and I encourage everyone to embrace it as your love. Be as colorful or plain as you like, create or consume or both, ride the train or walk the streets, just be here and enjoy what the moment brings. Thanks be to the most high, one perfect divine love, poured upon us like water from a beach bucket.
