Reckless:Disarm


Reckless
Embracing our fleeting moments of recklessness and our inherent fragility, that ultimately define who we are, spontaneously, yet cathartically, we give in to our widely passionate emotions: cry our eyes out, punch a wall, descend into madness for a bit. Resisting only prolongs the agony, inhibiting our creative juices and marginalizing what should be very real, organic experiences. Darker emotions, raw and inflamed, propel us into uncertain yet sincere experiences, without the measures thought that prevents us from living a genuine life. We are disarmed, which lends itself to certain fragility: whether it is disturbing or sweet we take notice.

Meals at Tamarind never disappoints. Oh Lam, a local lao style stew and a salad of beans, mushrooms, sesame seeds and flowers.

Timoneer


Timoneer: Helmsman; Noun, The person at the helm who steers the ship.  Navigator, a person who explores by ship.

I'm not trying to forget. 
It was windy on the sea like this when we met. 
Now the flood lines open wide, with your memory sailing deep around inside. 
I am alone here.
 Always your timoneer. 
Whether you want me dear, you've got me. 
Me and my blown out heart. 
Taking it to hard.
Whether you want me dear, you've got me. 
How do I get to you?
 Your ears are too far from me. 
How do I get to you?
You left me too early. 
How do I captain this ship, I'm not a one gal team. 
How do I rescue you from the sea. 
I am alone here. 
Always your timoneer.

I Heart..




These two. A and Alex. They are my neighbors at work. I look forward to seeing them everyday. A is now talking and repeating.. so I say funny little things and she just repeats it over and over. The latest is Uh Oh. It took Alex a little bit longer to warm up.. but now he runs straight up to me to just make sure I see him. They melt my heart. 



Jungle Dance





Overnight to Xieng Mouak Resort. About 25km outside of town. Celebrated birthdays and blew off some steam from working hard the past couple of months. November has come so fast..the new year will be here fast and then the plan for what's next.. what's next?? My mind has been working overtime putting it all together.
