Angel Dream

So, I already have been slacking! woops. i meant to take note of lovely things i have seen all week. Last night I said, "holy smokes! it's already the 9th tomorrow!"

To be honest, it's been a long week. I realize that i havent had a day off in 13 days, because I say yes too much. I felt completely burnt out wednesday, but when i finally made it home after 2 hours of riding the T, back and forth and wandering in the rain, seeing Jesse made everything ok. His hugs are the best.

However, my dream last night, I believe makes up for my lack of participation in my own love challenge.

So, it started off really weird. Jesse and I were looking at wedding dresses. And we were looking in the window at a "vera wang" dress, the manican who looked like she hadnt eaten in 3 weeks, CAME ALIVE! She had eyes like charcoal, like they were all pupils and she was so scary. but she walked right past us like we werent there. Then all the manicans in the store started coming alive! (Bear with me, it gets better). So all of a sudden I started to notice a difference between some of them. Some of them were angels, and others were demons! The angels were looking at Jesse and I with pure LOVE, and the demons didn't know we were there, they just walked aimlessly with black eyes. Right before I woke up, a child angel, dressed in white came over and touched my arm, and said "You know he is the one" with a smile that could melt an iceberg.

It might sound really weird, but it was SO cool. It felt like the message she was trying to tell me was that even when I have an exhausting week, and feel burnt out, or doubt myself, its all ok because i've found my soul mate and we have committed to spending our lives together. A lot of people never get this chance, but I have, and I'm so grateful.

More on love, tomorrow :)

I'm obsessed with this song, and i have never heard such beautiful, elegant, from the heart poetry in the lyrics. it's like the epitome of LOVE. enjoy <3


Turning Pagei've waited a hundred years.but i'd wait a million more for you.nothing prepared me forwhat the privilege of being yours would do.
if i had only felt the warmth within your touch,if i had only seen how you smile when you blush,or how you curl your lip when you concentrate enough,i would have known what i was living for all along.what i've been living for.
[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/turning-page-lyrics-sleeping-at-last.html ]your love is my turning page,where only the sweetest words remain.every kiss is a cursive line,every touch is a redefining phrase.
i surrender who i've been for who you are,for nothing makes me stronger than your fragile heart.if i had only felt how it feels to be yours,well, i would have known what I've been living for all along.what i've been living for.
though we're tethered to the story we must tellwhen i saw you, well, i knew we'd tell it wellwith a whisper, we will tame the vicious seaslike a feather, bringing kingdoms to their knees.

December Love

Alas, it has been a LONG time since I've taken the time, space and energy to write a new blog entry. Where to begin? yikes. My life has been full of beautiful happenings. So full.

Many of you know the scoop: I moved in with the love of my life, who asked me to marry him in august! I have picked up more yoga classes and now teach a comfortable 12-14 classes a week, and LOVE every second of my job.

Many of you also know: 2010 was a rough year. Real rough. I have realized that in the chaos of 2010, the sadness, the pain, that 2011 felt better for being a fresh start, but also a lot more beautiful things happened that I was able to recognize and appreciate. Though, in the beautiful happenings of 2011, some residue from 2010 was definitely hanging out. As we enter the final month of a lovely year, I've been reflecting quite a bit about things in general. My life has come to place where I can establish time to take enough space and time for myself to feel h
ealthy and happy. I live closer to the city, closer to the studios, and spend significantly less time traveling from studio to studio. In allowing the 2010 residual to run it's course, I am feeling more open, more alive and safer in myself than i ha

ve in a long time.

In allowing myself to take the space to let the events of 2010 sink in, I am able to move forward a stronger person for it all. Time does heal, let me tell you!

So, as I rode the train home today from an AMAZING body work session with the talented and loving David Vendetti at south boston yoga, i saw something that has re-inspired this blog. I've decided that in honor of 2011, which has been filled with love and support from SO many people in my life, I am going to take a "December challenge" of posting once a day about LOVE...

this might in the form of a picture, or a poem, or lyrics to a song i can't stop listening to. But i am going to highlight all the LOVE i can
find this month and spread it as much as i can so you can feel as much love as possible as you move through you holiday season and into a new year.



Light and Love,
Sarah
