<p>*couch talk*</p>
<p>my mind is so peaceful yet so full of inspiration and vision.  I started to have these moments on a regular basis when shone and I got together.  It&#8217;s a beautiful journey, I&#8217;m so grateful for every single thought and exploration.  I have learned more about myself over the past years than I have learned all of my life.  and as some as you know I am turning 34 this month, so I have had plenty of time on this earth so far to spend time with myself.  or have I?</p>
<p>the other night while I was bartending, I took notice of my present moment.  something I realized that I have not been doing at the bar.  Usually I am running around trying to tend to everyone&#8217;s needs, anticipating what they need before they need it, because I always love to make sure everybody is having a great time.  Though my actions always made it impossible for me to spend time and connect.  And at times I realized that I had been allowing the bar to wear me down.  I was losing a lot of energy on the bar, and coming home exhausted.  Needing more time to recover, and then of course allowing my best friends mary and tuaca to play a whole lot more than I really want them too.  </p>
<p>So tuesday night while I was taking note of my present moment, I stopped to see what was going on around me.  This is what I saw.</p>
<p>I saw the man I love, the man who fills my heart and vibrations with so much magic standing behind the bar pouring a drink for one of our customers.  I saw @nopantsdance flirting and giggling and flashing her boobies behind the bar&#8230; ( I am training her after all to be a bartender, and I am here to train her to be the best she can be! <img src='http://gcrush.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> )  I saw my work &#8220;husband&#8221; chris taking dishes back to be washed (because I refuse to use the chemicals that are needed when washing them by hands, yes Nate knows this, because it makes my hands dry and crackly, and this girl is in pictures, and that is just not acceptable, but most importantly I love myself too much than too allow the chemicals to be on my body!)</p>
<p>I saw a room full of amazing artists, @metaphysical1 and @auditorycanvas playing on their new tools, entertaining the crowd, I saw a room full of big smiles and lots of hugs.  I had new customers on our nights asking what was this place?  ha ha, they couldn&#8217;t  believe the great energy and fun that was happening on a tuesday night!  (yes they will return)</p>
<p>I just stood there, standing still, and just looking around.  It was such an amazing and beautiful scene.  Everybody working together and sharing great times.  Why not, Tuesday night is just as good as any other night.  Live in the present!</p>
<p>So then it dawned on me, it hit me so hard I almost started crying.  Tears of joy of course.  I realized again how much I loved shone.  How much I loved that he is always right beside me, no matter where I am at.  He&#8217;s now bartending and learning the bar so that on my shifts he can come back and help out.  Which gives me more time to slow down, and spend quality time with so many of the people that come in to visit.  It saves some of my energy so that I don&#8217;t need so much recovery time from running all night.  He allows me more time to be me.  To slow down, breathe, and have a lot of fun.  To really take in the surroundings, and truly appreciate every second I am spending at the bar.</p>
<p>Then it really HIT me!!!  I&#8217;m not sure if anybody was watching, but my knees almost buckled.  Buckled from the realization:</p>
<p>Meeting shone and sharing time and love with this man, has given me an opportunity to be myself.  To get to know myself, to know what I like, what makes me feel good, what provides for my creative blissful self.  Shone&#8217;s love and our relationship has given me wings.  I&#8217;ve had the opportunity to pull away from all of the things that were not making me happy, all of the patterns that were causing malfunctions in my living.  Not that I was completely malfunctioned, ( I honestly thought that I was so independent, and that I could do anything alone, because I could always work so hard and never quit on anything, the bigger the challenge, the more I gave!  FAIL ) More importantly his love just brought out the love that I feel for myself and for life!  It was the missing element, the missing puzzle piece.</p>
<p>I enjoy each and every day that we share.  Waking up each day is the best ever!  Always ready for whatever magic the universe and our love brings!  </p>
<p>and now, every tuesday and wednesday, I have an even bigger smile, and more energy walking in and preparing for the greatest nights ever!  It&#8217;s a much better energy for me to share with my friends: all of the amazing people that share their love and time on tues and wed nights rocking away at <a href="http://theamendment21.com">the amendment21</a>.  I am forever grateful!</p>

<p>I think it&#8217;s so important for every person to know who they are, to be loved, to love, and to be surrounded by a community of love!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>couch talk:</p>
<p>would you consider yourself a creative person (and by all means creativity comes in all different avenues, so whatever you do don&#8217;t sell yourself short!!!) ?  what level of creativity would you rank yourself on a scale of 1-10?  how important is your creative life to you, the part of your human condition where you get to free flow a bit, and follow your inspirations?  </p>
<p>would you consider yourself a sexual person? meaning how often a day do you visualize, think, wonder, search, explore, communicate, are curious, or have sex?  and please be honest with yourselves.  you are not going to be struck down by lightning, and you are not going to get grounded by your parents!  <img src='http://gcrush.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />   </p>
<p>and now, if you are not thinking of it enough everyday, then how are you going to change that? <img src='http://gcrush.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>my point is this:</p>
<p>we are human.  we have to eat, we have to sleep, we have to eliminate.  are we all still agreeing at this point?  we all have hormonal bodily influences that naturally cause us to feel stimulated, aroused, or in heat.  some of us use this call of the wild to procreate, (have children) others use this call of the wild to satisfy their carnal urges.  </p>
<p>we are human: we love to create, build nests, places where we feel &#8220;comfortable&#8221;,( watch out if you are talking to a cancer, we will go on and on how important our nest is to us!) places that inspire us to live, to be creative, to entertain.</p>
<p>okay, so now that we are all sexual and creative creatures, are we all creatively having sex?  </p>
<p>Now that we are being 100% honest with each other, I want us to think how often we are adding creativity to our sex lives.  Why?  because as a human, we cannot actually think that having sex in the same position, in the same room, at the same time, with the same person for a lifetime is going to actually satisfy our sexual appetite?  Why, because we are humans, and can&#8217;t we agree that this situation is not being human?</p>
<p><center><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/gcrush/3541368087/" class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Medium" title="what is your fantasy?"><img class="alignnone" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2016/3541368087_d4be2086fe.jpg" alt="what is your fantasy?" width="350" height="500" /></a> </center></p>
<p>yes I said the same person.  I know you have all heard me say how much I love shone, and that I think he is the greatest human to ever walk this planet.  Everyday with him is the best ever!  I have never known a love so great so magical, and so radiating!  The greatest sexual experience ever!!  yet I can still say that my sexuality would be stifled if he were the only human I were to have sex with for the rest of my life.  I&#8217;m very curious, I love to experience amazing levels of energy and exchange with people.  Sex is one of them.</p>
<p>I will say, that when it comes to that point, where we have found another, or others to creatively mix into our bedroom, that the energy, the magic, and the creativity they share will be at the same care and love and place where I am at with shone.  </p>
<p>We are calling out the best sexual experiences possible, opportunities to explore our curiosities and creativities that fully satisfy our sexual appetites.</p>
<p>I think that love is a magical energy, and I think there are ways to experience this love on so many different levels.  Make your experiences the best ever in life.  It is up to you!</p>
