Hi Marvin

I too am excited for you to move in. I want to share that it means alot to me that you said you read what i wrote and it inspired you. Putting the lifestyle into words that really tell it like it is, for me, takes such careful attention that i have found I rarely have been successful at sitting down to write and actually say what we do, what a date is like, what a conversation is like when i am agonizing in my head and my body feels like only a head with crackly bones inside a volcano with a cork in it, and someone works me into a laughter that frees orgasm to flow like honey through my veins, how many countless times i have tried to share the magnitude of my experiences and ended up leaving the computer cause i just could not remain present. My head racing too much...lack of willingness to feel it all over again and record it.

I say this because your comment inspires me to write more. And to write well i need to work the program (overcoming resistance to the program has been my greatest challenge for the past 9 months)

You have given to me - given me another reason to be present - to re-live particular experiences through documentation. Knowing another person benefits from what i write, or simply is moved by it, inspires me to stay abstinent, stay sober in a sense, in order to take good care of me and in order to write more, share more, serve the outside world by letting them know what riches lie in intimacy and in truth telling. Not that i have something others need, but my gut says we have what others desperately yearn for -- -- and are seeking in tv, drugs, unconscious sex, alcohol, work, food and relationships based on lies.

Marvin, I pray for you to have gentle love-surrounded expansion that fills your heart and soul where it wants most to be filled through your new living arrangement. If i could ask for more of anything to help me when i was adjusting to communal living it would be gentleness in my attitude toward myself.
Kristen
