Intersection

Where will all of these things intersect?

Will they intersect?

Which will become and which will only be part of the becoming?

But they are all part of the becoming. My own buffalo roam.

Dream: Adoption

I adopt(.)

children and dogs

and there is space for them

space in my home
space in my heart
space in my day
space in my tribe

Dream: Write

I write to share. I write to amuse and entertain. I write to spark and educate. I write to encourage.

I write about something like how to make your house your home.  Simple and sustainable, creative and lovely, warm and welcoming, inspiring and safe.

I write about being consciously creative in life. About thinking outside the box. Building and creating what you need, rather than buying it.  Be it a garden for a few vegetables, or a box for your camping supplies. Build don't buy.

I write about God and His love. Faith. Miracles. My walk with Him, the journey, the learning. The suffering and the limitless blessings. Grace. Mercy.

I write about motherhood. The transformative deep well that surely will spring up in the mothering.

I write about dreams and courage.

I write the true stories of my life.

Dream: Super Epic Buffalo Roam

It's a party.

We invite everyone we know - friends, family, co-workers, and their families.

It's outside, under tents, with great music of all sorts.

Donations all go to a charity.

There are nametags, but instead of saying Hello My Name is:   they say things like
my hidden talent is:
my favorite movie is:
I can impersonate:
the last book I read is:
my dream job is:
I would karaoke to:
my super power would be:

There are cups that say Super Epic Buffalo Roam 20__.

Maybe a trampoline.

Everyone comes together and meets and shares and makes connections - business, friendships, favors, love.

There is nothing to it except having fun and dancing. It is not fancy or overdone.

It's pure community. Good flow. Positive energy. Fun.

Happiness.

Manifesto of sorts

I believe humans have an innate need to be creative - God is The Creator and we are made in His image.

I don't believe the human need to be creative is all about "art" or ethereal expression - it's just about engaging our brains.

I believe that in today's world, we lack opportunities to be "creative" because we have machines, computers, factories and stores to do and provide so many things for us. We don't have to problem solve or find alternatives, research, learn by trial and error, or build and create things.  How often do we get to use our imagination?

I believe if we live life without tapping this part of our mind, we constantly feel unfulfilled, even sad. We lose our human spark. We become bored and boring.  We become dull.

into the great wide open

This idea, it's been roaming around in my head for a while.  I'm not even certain what it is.  But it is Buffalo Roam.

I'm starting here, in this space as the first step in believing it will go somewhere. The Mondo Beyondo kind of believing.  Because writing it down is what does it for me.

Words.

This leg of the journey towards the life that is lingering out there in my dreams and ideas.

If I put it out there, it's at least that much more real.  Once I'm not holding it captive in my head anymore, it has the chance to go somewhere.

It's something about creativity.
And things about living simply.
Wanting to connect people and their gifts. 
Living consciously and creatively.
Writing.
Feeding the mind, body and soul with good things.
Inspiration. Inspiring. Inspired.
Not being afraid. Having courage.
Having FUN and loving fully.
Experiencing life.


I want to look back someday and say, oh yes, that's how I got here.  See, what happens when you believe your dreams. Don't ever forget that.
