Today, I read "Growing Wings" by Kristen Jongen, and realized I need more soul food like that in my life.
Those books always make me feel so eloquent and profound, and I really love that feeling.
Whenever I read these books, I always think of being in Open Studios when I was 15, and having a very pretty young woman come up to me, admire my work, and say "You're lucky, discovering yourself at such a young age."
For some reason, that has never stopped resonating with me. At the time, I think I only nodded dumbly and said "yeah."
But I guess I haven't really discovered myself. I think I discovered the person who was designed to help me discover myself. She's who I need, but she's means to an end. She's a very large part of me, but she's not exactly the finished product.
"It's about BIG LOVE, she professed. And letting go... and bulging, vulnerable hearts... and the honest truth. And the profound choice we make every day to live our lives in Color and choose Love again." ~Kristen Jongen
