I find no better message than this one. Reflection is a habit, and consciousness a way of life.

Peep these two songs by Mumford & Sons. If you haven’t heard of them, you’re missing out. Beautiful lyrics and beautiful music.

In The Kitchen

No Comments 26 July 2010

So I just got back from buying a repair piece for my Hookah baby at a little bodega in Allston, which will be the first of many trips for me I’m sure. We made friends with the Lebanese owner, and he hooked me up with some good ingredients. So I came home and made some fresh baba ganoush and hummus. YUM. If you’re not familiar with Middle Eastern foods, it involves a lot of garlic, lemon juice and lamb! I’ll have to compare this recipe with my Sitto’s, but she looks like she dose a pretty good job! Kibbeh Nayeh is one of my favorite Lebanese dishes. It’s grown on me, seeing as how it’s raw meet, but believe me, it’s delicious!

Seeing as how I have a kitchen now, and I can’t get my Sitto’s food whenever I like… harram (which means shame), I’m going to start to do some exploring in the Lebanese kitchen. My Sitto already taught me how to make Baklavah (or bitleweh in Lebanese). This will be my first solo exploration mission. Wish me luck!

Be open to the reality that someone, the right one, is going to love you exactly the way you are. Be open to letting the right person in. Be open to the possibility of love. Be open to finding a best friend.

Be open to possibilities!

That Fatal Day

(our beach at home in early June)

Summer is speeding by. How is it the end of July already? I’ve got another 20 page research paper to write by August 4, so these posts will be far and few between until that fatal day. And then, 3 weeks of freedom mmm. It won’t be long before I’ll be moving back into the dorm to finish my final year of college, and my third year here at BC. It’s interesting to think about where life takes us… how greatly my path may have altered if I had not left NYU. That one decision has brought an abundance of changes for me. Now, entering my final year at a college I once mocked and never wanted to attend, I am sad for it to end. But mostly I am grateful for where my path has taken me and the people that have touched me along the way. I am excited for the next chapter in my life after Graduation day (excluding the daunting task of getting a real job). No one ever escaped the future by ignoring it! Life is one beautiful chapter after another.

For now it’s crunch time.
On the agenda for the next 3 weeks:
1. Class
2. Gym
3. Homework
4. Cooking meals
5. Watching True Blood, Entourage, and most recently Modern Family! (If you have not seen this show, you need to go check it out at abc.com asap, it’s some awkward comedy but it will have you laughing I promise)
7. Sleep :)

The days are rushing underneath your feet. Take care of yourself and the rest will unfold before your eyes.

Lead Me To The Shallow End

Assuming that you don’t fall for every fool who has a lingering glance your way… What are the chances you will get hurt while falling for someone? It’s a given that taking two people going into a situation, they are bound to be thinking different things.  Sitting on a see saw- on one side I am blind folded and on the other I sit with eyes wide open. I want to trust my instincts and let my senses take over. But my feet can’t feel the ground, and I don’t know if the person on the other end will jump off and leave me to hit the ground.

It’s easy to say trust your intuition. In actuality, it can be a little scary if you foresee real feelings. Sometimes after having been hurt, we repel the energy that we naturally attract. This is nothing more than our survival instincts working in high gear   – Evade the possibility of loss at all costs.

I am naturally a very optimistic person, and I do believe that everything happens as it should. But as it goes in life, things in my past have made me hesitant to jump right in the ocean again. Maybe for now, I’ll just dip my toe in to feel out the temperature. It’s only going to get warmer, right? The way I look at it, either way it’s a risk. You jump and possibly one day realize you’re treading water alone … or you walk away from the water dry wondering what if?

I would love to get some opinions on this. What do you guys think? Is it better to just stop thinking and throw yourself into your interactions?

Indigo Children

We-Own-the-Sky.mp3

The concept developed in the 1970s. The name refers directly to the Indigo-colored aura around this certain type of person. Indigo Children are thought to be strong-willed, intuitive and independent individuals. Along with their clear sense of self-definition and purpose, they are seen as being unusually creative and eccentric. These people are those who resist conformity and embrace change. They have been described as extremely empathic individuals and display an unprecedented level of kindness and sensitivity to the world around them.

Are you an Indigo child?
