At the end of the rainbow lies all my dreams (awake and asleep). When looking into someone's eyes, stranger or friend, I am looking for that rainbow. That little piece of themselves that is real and holds the magic of all possibilities. I love looking for that in people. It makes me giggle if they suddenly smile back, their eyes light up, and for that moment we are sharing a secret. (Shhh, we know what is at the end of the rainbow.
Our balloons fly into the blue sky like a flock of dreams. In those dreams our present lives only exist as we wish them too. If we enjoy our present lives (with all its circumstances), we can include those aspects into our dream. The dream is that which is created beyond the brush stroke, beyond the pen line, beyond anything we begin to do...because the dream is the reality we choose to live completely in our mind. It feels like a life time, but might only last 1 minute. Then blink, blink....we are back.
Our
balloons touch down and we are almost into the water of our emotions. The place
where all our thoughts are ricocheted and bounced about. It can either be fun
or stressful. It jiggles our hearts, wiggles our stomachs, and makes us giggle!
We can splash or canon ball. We can dive head or feet first. We can doggy
paddle or back stroke. We swim in our realities as we see fit. It is all up to
us. So when people wonder what keeps me smiling, even in spite of the death and
suffering my work surrounds me with, it is the realities I find in-between.
That space between the breathing in and breathing out. That is the place where
magic lives; home of my giggles.
Splash.....diving in, becoming the rainbow!!
