Morning Musings.
Listening to Ronnie Dunn's "Your Kinda Love". I thought about what the lyrics tell me. I created this paragraph detailing what it will be like the first night I spend with my Soulmate; wherever she is. I welcome critiques; this is raw but it's where my mind is right now.
I am lying in bed when bursts of energy destroy my slumber. My sensations are heightened - otherworldly - as I hear but not with my ears because my skin is tuned to the vibrations of the wind against the window, the stillness of the house and soft breathing beside me. I can sense every joint between my bones; the blood coursing through my veins as my heart mechanically works to sustain my life. I can feel the ends of the hairs of my head. I can feel my fingernails. I can feel every inch of me touching every inch of the soft sheets beneath my body and wrapped around my core. This moment, frozen-forever in the place between reality and dreams, brings a guilty smile to my lips. My body turns and my hands find your form. Wrapping my arms around your torso I push closer as if to combine us - the thought of joining us together makes me chuckle a little bit. You and I spent the last few hours coupling our bodies; uniting in every imaginable form and I am complete and I am happy but happier and more-complete as your hips nuzzle back into my embrace. The love we created washes over and through us by osmosis or by magic. I sense your peace. I sense your happiness. I know a few things are true but no truth matches in completeness the union of our souls. This barely-awake intimacy we now share drives my world and choreographs the motion of the stars in my universe. I love this shit.
“… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.
