About me: mind over matter, soul before flesh. the heart of a healer, with a wound that does not heal. a poet without rhymes or meter, but a writer driven by necessity. a believer of organized chaos: amidst the random meaninglessness of the universe, sometimes heartbreaking flashes of creative genius burst forth, short-lived, like solar flares or shooting stars. passionate, sometimes like a raging wildfire, other times like smoldering embers. i await the call for revolution and bide my time.
Read my blog at http://disorderedthoughtprocesses.com
Who I'd like to meet: kindred souls, warriors of the Revolution, deep thinkers, passionate artists, extraterrestial life, people who keep it real, people who understand that love is more than just romance, that hope is not just believing that everything will turn out all right, that faith is about courage in the face of doubt and not about certainty, people who practice what they preach, or are at least aware of the contradictions between what they say and do, people who are happy without having to delude themselves about reality.

Still worried. Just studied all the patients I know about. Thanks for talking today. It helped probably more than you know. Going to try to sleep a bit. So glad you sailed; that sounds awesome!
My name is J. I save all my poops and have them arranged in order of most gratifying to least gratifying. It's especially difficult because it's so subjective.

please consider reading/sharing your piece/ artwork with the community at this event. email us by april 30th at m21reception@gmail.com for details.

on top of all this, we will raffle away back issues frequently throughout the program, for next to nothin. our backstock must go; it must be with the community where it belongs.
Yep, heading out in the am. Looking forward to it. Hope wards are treating you well. How's life? Driving around must be beautiful these days. Full moon tonight. Happy Spring!
Tru dat. Mindy was down right nice about it. She even took time to ask how I was doing with everything. I guess they're looking for a moonlighter for tomorrow. I'm thinking about it. Just not sleeping well, though I went to my doctor today and got a bunch of sleeping pills. What are you up to tonight?
"Hope begins in the dark, the stubborn hope that if you just show up and try to do the right thing, the dawn will come. You wait and watch and work: you don't give up." Anne Lamott
