Blades of Glory

I looooooooooove ice skating!

I don't know what my deal is...

I have been going to every outdoor rink available and near me. They were all over during the Holidays. It reminds me of when I was younger and watched Figure Skating on tv. I would not want to become such a pro athlete anytime soon, but an open rink, all to myself, with no one watching... thrills me. I adore the outerwear and winter accessories in a less competive state. I like getting friends together and daring each other not to fall. I like the speed at which you go and trying out graceful dance moves in flight. It's such a great workout too! Who knew I'd have a knack for it?

Labor of Love

I cannot exist without you. I am forgetful of everything but seeing you again. My life seems to stop there. I see no further. You have absorb'd me. I have a sensation at the present moment as though I were dissolving. I have been astonished that men could die martyrs for religion... I have shudder'd at it... I shudder no more. I could be martyr'd for my religion: Love is my religion. I could die for that. I could die for you. My creed is love, and you are its only tenet. You have ravish'd me away by a power I cannot resist. - Emily Dickinson

Sensual Chocolate

Life is the hot chocolate...

your job, money, and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain life. The cup you have does not define, nor does it change the quality of life you are living. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the hot chocolate God has provided us. Always remember - God brews the hot chocolate; He does not choose the cup.
