Today's pic: I don't know WHY I felt happy or WHAT I felt happy about, I just felt HAPPY.
Let me tell you a story about insensitivity and how I settled for a type of relationship that was less than what I am worth. I was overwhelmed by love-vibes at a certain place, in a certain time and I didn't see what was coming. And there I was jumping into the maelstrom of middle-age crisis in California. And I had no idea of how much I had NOT changed in all that time I spent in Tokyo; that I would come back still feeling like a twenty-something girl when everyone else had changed - matured, gotten married, divorced, had kids, filed bankruptcy, bought a house, taken anti-depressants, changed jobs, learned to make conversation about their issues.. The only thing familiar to me when I returned was music, like timeless little friends and children. Music/sound - without being qualified or contextualized - can be the great equalizer.
