I am in a state of semi-lucid delirium. It has been one of those days. I am so ready to shower and get into clean sheets (eeeeeooooohhhhh yes yes yes) but some Planter's trail mix of nuts seeds and raisins just kicked my libido into gear (ha not really) (not the planters). And I am pretty inspired so I wana let it flow from this hotel room in STL. Well, at least a little.
10 hours behind the wheel. 6 states ran through via rte 70W. 3L of bottled water. 5 rest stops. 1 1-hr flight. 8 ciggarettes. 4 Jesus signs of the "he is your eternal savior" variety with one shockingly large cross, 9 CDs of music. and a partridge in a pear tree. (in no particular order).
And a need. A need for speeeeeeeeeeed. hahaho.
Countless encounters with the 'other-side' were made. And the 'other-side' was that of significant 'signage'. And things lining up. With, beyond, above, to the side. Something's kickin in middle-America. Maybe it's all the pastures and fresh air. And crop circles.
But seriously, who gets approached in a gas station convenience store in good ol'farm land Indiana by a 50-something year old man who launches into a conversation about witches (wearing black leggings and a black T likens one to a witch, apparently) overcoming cancer (thanks to alternative, witch medicine), good energy spheres, his lesbian life partner? Opening it all with a drive-by "You look very good". Out of NOWHERE. How do I always attract these things?! I had to ask him to repeat himself because he blind-sided me from behind the Doritos rack. I was just minding my beezwax, checkin out some tacky souvenirs and organic beef jerky. But what was really freaky deeky (not even surprised, really really) was that we had been talking about shamanism and natural holistic healing and energy and all that good (I don't like this label but for lack of a better brain au moment..) 'new-age' stuff. It was just too coincidental, but right on-point coincidental. And then, his left eye (which I've read is the eye of your personality) had a crazy white/translucent/holographic fleck in it that did something strangely intense to me whenever I would stare at it. I think he knew. It felt like my mind was vibrating, knocking around from side to side in my skull when light would bounce off that fleck. It wasn't even a fleck, really. It was like a wormhole into...je ne sais quoi. But wow something crazy. Then 10 minutes later I got the ticket. Voodoo! He told me to go to this site http://www.reluctant-messenger.com/. And talked about toe of wart and tongue of dog and feathers from a Phoenix. As in a plant. That grows back after it's burned and completely disintegrated.
"You can be very creative today because your mind is freed from emotional attachment as you are connecting to a higher spiritual purpose. This isn't just about making an artistic statement; it's about expressing yourself in a way that helps others see their own true nature. Without a lot of effort, you can use your talents now to positively impact the lives of those around you by simply showing up and being yourself."
Well, isn't that something???
Bonne nuit.
