FORGET YOURSELF!

develop interest in life as you see it; 

in people, things, literature, music

-

the world is so rich, 
simply throbbing with 

rich treasures,

beautiful souls

and

interesting people.

forget yourself!

- henry miller

i remind myself of this every hour of the day, to forget myself. to devour the world and its astonishing beauty. every single time when i have been in recovery, this is what has helped me back to joy. every single time!

also
 i am really finally learning how to live in this present moment. 
i guess by necessity

because:

now = good wonderful

yesterday was such pain
such painful helplessness memories

tomorrow might bring sadness
but we hope for joy

now = beauty safety:)

i am so grateful to finally have a home again, a safety place to come back to after adventures. i miss sweetness tremendously(she is part of a tiny documentary i created from my former life in east dulwich) and i am hoping to get a kitty of my own soon:))) i am too happy to be in epping, the forest is simply put magic! it has been an adjustment though that is still kind of very difficult, a lot of sadness of what did happen. maybe i'll share more in the future!

 every single morning  though, i meet a deer family in the forest of epping:))) sadly i seem to scare them, but when they have run away a bit, they all stop and stare at me and i then take my moment to say good morning:))) i SO HOPE they one day will recognize my voice and just feel the love coming from me.
