Expectations

Looking for the thing that is next and good and right
And letting go…
Expectations
Looking for the thing that is next and better and what I should want
Letting go
Expectations
Looking for momentum and stars and rockets through the sky
Letting go
Expectations grow
Looking, searching, frowning, jaw clenched, sweat pouring, tough it out…
Letting go
Expectations
Breath and forced calm and time outs and pain in the wait
Letting go
Expectations
Needing
Letting go
Expectations
Letting go
Expectations
Letting go
Expectations
Breath in
Letting go
Breath in
Breath out
Just breathe
Letting go

Thank You for Writing Me!

First international airmail flight! How far we've come, though now we lose letters via auto-trash-folder placement rather than flying into the ocean...

First international airmail flight! How far we’ve come, though now we lose letters via auto-trash-folder placement rather than things falling into the ocean…

I am excited today that, looking through my ABC email, I was sent a bunch of letters from readers over the past couple weeks.  All of them were beautiful and encouraging, which I will always take!  I’ll even be publishing one of the stories sent to me this Wednesday for the Perspectives blog, so keep an eyeball peeled for the words of a fellow reader.  First though, to those who have reached out to me, thank you!  You keep my motor running.

I do try to write back people who contact me, and one of the things I realized today was that some legit emails get trapped in alongside the epic amounts of spam that gets shot my way…  So, if you’ve written me and included your email address in the letter, and I haven’t responded, please know that I probably didn’t receive it.  I’m sorry about that, I’ll be updating the way this site works to try and alleviate how much spam I get (and if anyone has an idea of how to best do that, please feel free to PM me as well – I am not really that tech savvy it turns out)…

While we’re on the subject of website updates, I would really LOVE to have a comment feature that works on this site, and I can’t seem to make that work out.  It looks like it is working on my cpanel, but I don’t see them popping up ever online.  One of the major reasons I decided to write this blog was to create a culture of people who feel able to connect with one another, communicate, think, bounce ideas together.  I suppose it is fitting to ask the community for a little help making the thing functional.  Thank you in advance if you have any helpful suggestions.

I look forward to hearing from more of you as time wears on, and as we get closer to the end of the alphabet I’ve been looking back at subjects I’ve written about and have gotten pretty excited about it all.  I am proud of this space and time.  It’s good to know it has touched others as well.

To Breath and Being,
~ Karin

Darkness

10155822_10203035740669556_2811290342512423321_nFrom nothing comes something, and in the end we disintegrate, back into darkness.

This window of time we have is an explosion of opportunity.  Bright lights, loud noises, the feeling of your muscles and bones lifting, creating, working toward some goal.  Yet forces of depression, confusion, and tension invade also…  Lying in wait.  Obscuring the vision.  Focus shifts in and out and there is no safety net below.

You are here.  Now.

Desire becomes pain becomes one single step in a direction that could take you anywhere.  This definition of fear is movement.  The wind blows strong.  Know her.

Is there any action granted greater meaning than your moment?  What are you aware of?  What are you ready for?  What makes your body tick, vibrate, move, suck air in, expel again, fall back onto the sidewalk of life knowing something, anything, new? In charge of destiny for a moment (you believe), accept now the headlong hurdle of life.  Feel it moving forward, stopping never.  Not in moments of happiness, not in death, sickness, pain, or climax.  The stomach still needs food, the lungs must swell, your mouth will salivate in the throes of despair; you will lust.

That voice that knows something past this moment will speak up someday again, soon…  you shall be able to listen and move.

To Breath and Being,
~ Karin
