Dreaming ~ Sexy ~ Fluid ~ Daring

Today I will dream. Dream the big dreams that could be seen as fantasy, could be interpreted as wanting too much. Today I will dream the whole and wild parts of myself into being. This is sexy allowing the dream to verge into reality. There is something that is visceral, exciting, sexy about allowing the dreams to loom big and real and full into who I am. The fluid quality that comes into my being when I allow for the dream to loom into reality keeps me going, fires my being and pushes me to create and grow to grasp the dream into my being. I can create a crucible for the dream this way. I can dare the dream to grow as I blow on the embers of my dream to watch the flames burst forth and the dream come to the edge of fruition.

Today I will dream BIG. Play in the sexy light of how the dream can come to life.

The PURSUIT of Pleasure. ❤

The JOY of being actively involved in the pursuit of pleasure.  Pleasure that can be experienced on all levels and in each of the energy centers in the body.

Believe me this is about more than SEX it is really about being aware and learning about how to receive pleasure on all levels. To identify the seismic waves that identify when pleasure is entering the body and to allow and open the body to receive that pleasure… To learn and actively train the body to receive pleasure in and on and through the entire body.

Then there is the pursuit of  giving pleasure and how much pleasure can be received by giving.

Today is about an experiment into pleasure.

PS the word SEX in the title is an experiment to see if the views of this blog are truly increased by putting the word SEX in the title. A  days ago SEX was the first word in the title and there were 8 times as many visits to that individual blog page as on the busiest day in the past. Let me see what the word SEX does to this blogs stats today.

Wild Geese

You do not have to be good.
You do not have to walk on your knees
for a hundred miles through the desert repenting.
You only have to let the soft animal of your body
love what it loves.
Tell me about despair, yours, and I will tell you mine.
Meanwhile the world goes on.
Meanwhile the sun and the clear pebbles of the rain
are moving across the landscapes,
over the prairies and the deep trees,
the mountains and the rivers.
Meanwhile the wild geese, high in the clean blue air,
are heading home again.
Whoever you are, no matter how lonely,
the world offers itself to your imagination,
calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting
over and over announcing your place
in the family of things.

An inspiration for the day.

love what it loves…”

TODAY is all about the BERRIES! I love the termFrutti di Bosco”, the Fruit of the Woods.

I love berries and they are good for me! I will share my yummy treat that I made for the day.

Whenever I have this delicious treat I feel like I can be Pan in the forest, a satyr in the wood…

Berries

Strawberries – Raspberries – Blueberries – Blackberries

Slice the strawberries, toss in the raspberries, blueberries and blackberries. Sprinkle with a little sugar or drizzle a little honey, add some finely grated lemon zest. Sprinkle all with a little Lemoncello or a bit of orange juice. Toss all together. Cover and let sit for the afternoon. It is better if the berries not kept cold but left at room temperature. The berries will ripen and their flavour will blossom if they are allowed to be a little warm. 

Drizzling Sauce

Sour Cream – Sugar or Honey – Lemon Zest – Lemoncello or Amoretto or Orange Juice

Sprinkle about 2 or 3 table spoons of sugar or honey over a pint of sour cream. Add the finely grated zest of one lemon and a couple of  tablespoons of Liqueur or Juice and stir together. The consistency should be of thick cream. Add more or less liquid to get to the consistency you like.

Base

Meringues, Croissant or Brioche, Day Old Cake. A few tablespoons of sweet and flavourful liquid.  One piece or slice for each portion.

Serving

Splatter a big spoon of the Drizzling Sauce on a plate. Break the base up into 2 or 3 pieces, scatter pieces over the Drizzling Sauce on the plate and sprinkle with some Vin Santo, Orange Juice or Liqueur. Splatter a bit more Drizzling Sauce over the base. Generously scatter lots of Berries and their juice over the base. Splatter some more Drizzling Sauce over the Berries. Voila!

Serve at once encouraging everyone to sop up all of the juice and the sauce on the plate with whatever you have used for the base.

TODAY I will enjoy my berries.

The JUICE today comes from DREAMING.

Resting – Preparing – Dreaming…

The next new adventure begins in this moment as I prepare and dream for the creation of an EROTIC TEMPLE.

The new adventure excites me to my core as another group of men gather to create and explore the connection between the PHYSICAL body, the EROTIC body and the body of SPIRIT. In this adventure of delight and mystery we will build a TEMPLE of EROS. Glad to be revisiting Wildwood and the grounding earthyness of the land and the expanding strength of the sky all above the snaking Russian River.

I love my work, my dream and the juice it brings my life and heart!

Getting WET!

All day I have been dreaming about how nice it will be to be in the big outdoor pool swimming along… doing my best to swim the distance, dancing through the water.

Even though the day was stress and deadlines and “this has to be done NOW!”… Thinking about the pool and the meditative and balanced art of swimming has had me stay focused all day long. I have been looking forward to the stretch, the measured breathing and the ballet that my body does as I go length to length. I have been looking forward to the water and the sky and the coolness and the liquid feeling that I have as I get into the water, warm up my body to the workout and then go the distance.

Off to be wet and juicy and dance in that limpid blue pool.

Today I will be focused and enjoy the dream of what to pool can bring.
