Trust Exercise

2013-02-16-Karin-2598I think life is a series of trust exercises.
Know what you need going into things…  But at some point you have to jump and just experience where the fall can take you.

I am thankful for the people in my life who have been open and honest with me.  Those who have caught my eye and smiled back, those who have offered me help when I’ve asked, and those who have pushed me to go further or stay on course.  I am notoriously horrible at asking, but the open, artistic, ever changing, adventurous, out life I am privileged to live is in large part a product of time and again reaching beyond my fears and daring to want more, find more, accept more from myself and the people around me.

I think the hardest part of accepting the things I want most is realizing that what I am giving in return is sufficient.  Not everyone wants the same things, needs the same things, or is fulfilled in the same ways (seems simple when I write it down though)…

I love the dance of human evolution.  Hard as it may be, it is the path to a rich, healthy, adventurous happiness.  Thank you for joining me here.

To Breath and Being,
~ Karin

Alive

Pen and ink by Karin Webb

Pen and ink by Karin Webb

Some days it seems too hard to face the life I build.

I imagine being released into the wild, disappearing.  Drowning slowly in a warm swamp, consumed by quicksand, my flesh torn to ribbons by hungry fearsomes.  Each summer’s end I dream of being carried to the other side of the world and dropped in the desert with nothing but my determination to find my way home.  I see my hands clawing over hills of sand, dragging this body back.  I don’t understand here some days, I don’t understand belong.

At the zoo are amazing displays of the unabashed character each animal plays.  Clear conversations between want, bugger off, and consent.  Violence is real.  There are consequences.  Facing forward, looking back at me, actions scream “look here!”, “attention!”.  My life as an actor is no different – one always knows their audience and performs…

My jealousy of visual artists has boiled inside for decades – to create with no one around, no collaboration needed – Art life alive outside the artist’s active gesture and gaze.

What is this malaise?

Your fingers deep in my muscles brings me to awake.  I wiggle into these pinpoint pains, gratefully breathing in the air around us.  Thank you for alive.  My mind opens, here exists, what we make in this moment is a beautiful reminder of alive.

Ok… One more Week and Then I’m Back

Building the Monster!

Building the Monster!

This week has been INSANE!  I built out a cargo van in 4 days (still more to do on it, though it’s roadworthy now), packed up my entire house, gave half my possessions away and put the rest either in the van or storage…

And it turns out I am going to be driving solo to Texas with my cat so that my car has a home while I’m away.  This makes for a week without blogging once again.

I will see you next Monday and I will have soooooo many adventures and stories to share.  Please come back!

I promise I’ll be in the mood and feeing sexy/kinky once again…
