Above The World

I really am an air sign, above all of my ecclectic qualities, for I love to fly above the world, land, and visit.

Maybe I have just been grounded in the muck so much that I feel such a desperate need to aim high, leap, and just keep going.

But what I truly crave and need is a good balance because I also love spending time with my family and gardening.

Covid

Maybe it would not have been so bad, but I had a full body adjustment after unknown ecposure which let the virus get into every space of my system.

Oof! Tonight I tested positive.

I knew it wasn’t just a cold: two days of being on fire with every nerve screaming.

It irritates me vastly that this required time off cannot be used productively.

The feeling of being sabotaged pervades everything.

Mentorship

She had to begin with someone anonymous to her, who was already partnered so that they could get right down to the grist of collaborative synergy without fear of transference crossovering.

She knew that within her was a power capable of transforming those she came into contact with; she was a catalyst and had to be mindful in everything that she was doing.

As they exchanged concepts and ideas regarding proceeding, she confessed to him that acting had been like a “no-go” zone for her – that it had been somehow impressed upon her that if she stood out and expressed herself, she would be attacked and ridiculed.

She angled the Zoom camera so that he could see her hand gently cradling that trembling part of her hidden identity as she asked him to guide this vulnerable part of herself with gentle, nourished safe-keeping.

The wonderful part was that he completely understood and that they shared a commonality in their language of mutual, complex, deeper interrelating of concepts and thematics.

She was thrilled to get to have this oportunity with one so skilled and willing to help advance her externalization.

A Scribe’s Account Of Experiencing

I used to delve deep into the subconscious web of dreaming we can all tap into if we are open and willing.

I used to enter a room and find him there, doing something. Sometimes we would share thoughts and other times, just exchange impressions.

Then one day, she infiltrated into our connection, pushing an arm hard against me, begging me to let them be – to give her this chance to make him happy.

I had been drawn by his and my rare connection, unsure if what they were doing was for show or pure intention – but was so startled that I let her input affect me.

If he is going to walk that external path and she truly wants this opportunity, I do not belong in the middle of it.

There is an underlying honor system to such things and he has not been advocating for me, directly.

Since then, I have been closing off our internal communications – for afterall, they could all just be inside my “head,” like some internal-loop fantasy.

But it hurts to be without him, and when I feel him there, my heart takes flight and I’m someone I’ve only dreamed of being.

“How do I manifest this feeling into my reality?”

Is this even the right phrasing to be choosing?

Regarding My Labradorite

Of the pair, the one that represented me has gone missing.

I am not surprised by this (in fact, I felt it coming) for to think that I could be partnered with one of his caliber has been replaced by his newfound mistress “reality.”

It wasn’t something that I had planned for, anyway.

It was based upon “sending’ dreams – and clearly the messengers got their wires crossed.

They were wrong – and they just have to admit it.

Perhaps it is best that the stone got lost, as it represented me – and once he chose another, I kept feeling like the stones’ pairing made me as an interloper.

But the question is raised as to my not liking this repeat resulting.

That gorgeous stone represented me tremulously reaching to acknowledge my own beauty.

Now she is gone – that representation of me – and I am erased again, left to my own reforming.

Elastic

The concept that a guy would want to partner with her while she engaged this resurgence of synergy did not make sense to her.

There were depths and levels in this self discovery that required flexibility and openly-honest responding.

From the mess that had been her life before, she had not gained any positive reinforcing in relationships – unless she stayed distant and cultivated surface-interface kinship.

Laundromat Vs. In-Home Savings

We still do not have the dryer working, even though it ought to be a priority.

We went back and forth with the neighbor maintenance helper trying to arrange a conversion for the mismatched 3-prong cord to 4-hole plug in the wall.

Being unable to have our schedules align for final verdict put off just buying a simple converter.

And besides, I still have to take all of my client linens to the laundry.

A Passing Encounter

As she waited in line to order, she noticed the guy behind the counter as the one that before had caught her attention.

Older than the rest of the staff, he had nice skin and was into some body building.

Usually, she did not look long, and rarely did she make any eye contact.

But today, she did both – at the same time he broke his usual distant mode and broke both, right back looking at her.

Flustered, she resolved to not keep looking, and focused on stretching her arms against her body, for they were spasmed tight from three days of intense work.

But then, he broke pattern and walked against the flow of customers to just in front of her to firmly adjust the rope blocking the quick entrance, which did not need adjusting.

Then when she was ordering, he kept hard-wiping the counter in front-side to her, even though he could have done so more quickly.

She could not go any further than to notice this as he finally disappeared from view.

What was she supposed to do? Say “hello” and give the younger man her phone number?

That just wasn’t something she was going to do.
