Moderation is for monks." ~ Robert Heinlein. The other guiding quote for my life is, "Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!" ~ Hunter S. Thompson A favorite quote for my life is, “To enjoy the full flavor of life, take Big bites.  Moderation is for monks.”  ~ Robert Heinlein.

You have encouraged me to pick up a pencil and draw again. I will be free to be courageous! I do love my life, albeit differently balanced than the "norm" and so I will not only be content but also proud to LIVE it and GROW it as I feel is right for my soul. Thank you B.

However, in a simultaneous quest for autonomy, the long list of "be" words - although helpful - also prickle my inner "Everyone's-always-telling-me-what-to-do-and-how-to-be-and-I-don't-ever-get-to-decide-for-myself-because-of-all-the-rules-of-society-and-philosophers-and-and-and-etc." brat. I wish someone could just shove me into shallow water without telling me how what I'm doing is wrong and what I "should" be doing. Or just hand me $17 million and then I'll be able to live it myself. Maybe it's just me, but it seems oxymoronic to me... Not that I don't love this stuff, because I do, but on the other hand, it is another list of "shoulds" and still someone else telling me what I should do about my life - which I should welcome, since I seek guidance, but I also resent because I just want to <be>... be <okay> as who I am. And today, this morning, minutes before finding this blog, I realized that even after all I've been doing and trying and been through, I still have very little say in my own life. Hiccup. I will take several whiskey-n-sodas now, please, thank you. I loved this post, my first foray to this blog… been trying to deal with such critical life issues for a long time.
