cold air

It's a MAD, BEAUTIFUL world...

Indeed! We all know this, and we should all be patting ourselves on the back for making it this far. Winter is dark and TOUGH, but we are nearing the end of it! That said, it is snowing the beautiful light fluffy stuff, and for some strange reason I am LOVING it!! Listening to CBC on the radio and booking gigs, drinking hot coffee, dreaming about the cross country ski that I am about to go on. What a thrill, out there in the woods, just me and my heart beat pounding...nothing is as beautiful as being out there, there is something fiercely magical about the freezing cold air, and the motionless evergreens looming overhead...and really, at the end of it all it's like you have re-fueled your soul from the deceiving anxieties that like to sneak in! I must remember to balance the physical with the mental... it truly enhances the spiritual, and when THAT'S done, you can do anything!! Currently I am re-reading the book "Siddartha" and let me tell ya, it's another way to nourish the soul... good literature can change the world and I am SO thankful for that type of escapism... thank you authors of the world!! I applied for a Grant from Canada Council for the Arts, so PLEASE use your positive "approve Lindsay" energy for a split second in my direction... it would be GREATLY appreciated!!! Well, the coffee is almost finished, and it's time to get out there and face that winter wonderland... until it melts which might be later today, ya NEVER do know... take it easy folks and remember the beauty, it's out there for YOU to find.... xoxox
