Exultation is the going...: Change
http://bekahindeutschland.blogspot.com/2012/04/change.html
Exultation is the going. Of an inland soul to sea. emily dickinson. Spring is such a beautiful reminder of change and growth. Its the time when you can see a difference in the blossoms on a tree within days or even hours. and this change? It is nothing short of a miracle. it is beautiful and unexplainable and just good. and thats just it. we are not meant to stay still and avoid change. as much as i whine about winter and cold, i am so in love with the change that comes at the end of it.

Exultation is the going...: September 2011
http://bekahindeutschland.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Exultation is the going. Of an inland soul to sea. emily dickinson. I am a collecter of beautiful words. Have you ever forgotten you have read something? I pulled out an old journal and found a collection of beautiful words from a book that i honestly did not remember reading. She was sent to sleep under a velvety cloak of words, richly patterned and stitched with gold, straight out of a fairy tale, while they went reading on into her dreams.". I will never stop collecting beautiful words. love. Honestly...

Exultation is the going. Of an inland soul to sea. emily dickinson. The Sky is Falling! Its a strange joy that I simply can't explain). While I was doing all of this, some other DAI employees were moving tables, setting up for a reading and discussion with a relatively famous author which took place later that evening. A little too much momentum. They missed my head, they missed the computer. They woke up the entire building. So this is what chicken little was talking about. Put away the laptop. Spring i...

Exultation is the going. Of an inland soul to sea. emily dickinson. In spite of my best efforts to stop writing so much about the weather, i realized that weather is poetic and there is just no way around it. emily dickinson, robert frost, henry david thoreau, they all wrote about weather. The cool air, blue skies, and sidewalks littered with yellow leaves as big as my head never fail to excite and inspire. and they make me want to eat the fruit that best personifies the season - an apple.

Where we left off: the dentist has prescribed me toothpaste for what is most likely in my mind a cracked tooth. Moving on: Guess what? I go to the same dentist that prescribed me toothpaste and he looks at my tooth again and actually says "hm. so you might have a crack in there' Finally! Tuesday, February 23, 2010. 8220;P...

From Green Mountains to the Birthplace of Voodoo. Tuesday, October 20, 2009. Yes aren't you excited! I really want to say to him 'No I'm really not actually, you've totally messed up my day.'. But what i say instead is 'Oh you can't paint tomorow when I return? I reluctantly get in the car and then he says 'We're towing the car behind us.'. How far' I ask. Only a little ways' by this he means the entire way. Here comes running water! In my house I had a very small shower and a drain. I also have a pi...
