"Lonely Planet"


Last night I witnessed the production, "Lonely Planet" at The Weekend Theater. It washed over me and swept through all the hues of my emotional spectrum.

It was gripping.

I wanted to leave the theatre and not talk to anyone afterwards. I needed to be with my thoughts. I read through the play a few times with Jay, but seeing it live and hearing the dialogue, the monologues, the story and watching my dear friends Duane and Jay act so sincerely was just...

a spiritual experience.

I love the play and think that it is graceful, witty, heartfelt, and unique. I love live theatre and how it can change you in a matter of a few lines. "Lonely Planet" resonated with me on a number of levels and I am still processing the performance.

Thanks to Jay, Duane, Jamie, all those involved with the production, and to Mr. Dietz for writing a commanding play that pays tribute to lives lost and a friendship that can endure these tragedies.

Much love to all of you,
Dustin

Loving the Squiggly

I was typing the other day and instead of hitting the ! key I hit the ~ key. Two odd altercations happened between two friends and me via facebook so I have deactivated my account for a bit. It was hurtful and unexpected. So when I hit the ~ key it made me smile and forget all that nonsense. ~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dustin

And With This, Farewell

This blog has been a dear friend to me. I am not good at farewells, but truly this is anything but. I look at it like this - I love the phoenix, the symbolism of it all, the power of rebirth. Hence why I named my blog/musing screen after one. :-) So, I am leaving this particular blog to start another one, one that fits me NOW, the one that I can share in a new way. So this feels right. Thanks to those who have read my musings throughout the years. I hope you follow me to my new musing home entitled THE TWELVE THAT IS DUSTIN BAYLAN. Yes, I am changing the name, the story of that is on the new blog for you to read. Here is the link: http://dustinbaylan.wordpress.com/ Much love, much hope and joy again, much potential... Winks and smiles of the Cat that is Cheshire, Dustin Baylan

Holding the Key

Only I am solid ground. Those whom I love - the new, the familiar - can be my circle, my connections... but the connection to self is the key I have been missing. Peace fills me as I hold the key and begin to unlock the doors of my life. Only I am solid ground and I embrace the beauty of me. Dustin
