Drenched, Dripping, Wet with Bliss

Two thousand thirteen. Hello. I welcome you.

I welcome you in strength and with love. I welcome you with no regrets. I welcome you with wings outstretched and hopes for the extraordinary.

I stand at the precipice of 2013, look up and see endless opportunity. I see a mountain that I am ready to climb. A challenge I am ready to master. I see myself atop the highest peak looking down into a shimmering ocean of infinite bliss, sparkly new beginnings, glistening new adventures. I see the beginning of all beginnings, the unified heart of all hearts, the shining, burning tornado of desire, the radiant vital vortex of hope and faith and anticipation that lives within each and every one of us as we stand in the doorway of this brand new year – ripe with possibility.

I see that there is so much more than I could ever see. So much beyond the limits of my little mind and this little blog – these fleeting words – my itty bitty world. And it absolutely thrills me. It thrills me to know that I am just a microscopic piece of this enormous puzzle in this glorious world, because oh my god what I have yet to experience. Oh my god what awaits me off my tiny radar screen.

The whole world is a work of art. And I am a part of it. We are each a part of it. We are the words. We are the music. We are the thing itself.

Life is not something we can hold onto. It is not something we will ever wrap our arms around. Life is a luminous halo, a semitransparent envelope surrounding us from the beginning of consciousness until the end. In 2013 I will make it my mission to glow, to bathe myself in the light from life’s halo, so I am drenched, dripping, wet with bliss. I will make it my mission to be blissful, to be utterly blissed out and delighted by the passing of each new day because there is no better way to face it. Because there is no better way to face it and because it feels damn good.

2013 will be about feeling damn good.

Bring it.
