Oh the Shoulds...


I should...
be in bed asleep right now.

I should...
be packed for a trip that I am taking tomorrow/today.

I should...
be tired from a long day.

I should...

Well I have never been a fan of the shoulds.

I am a six year old on Christmas Eve. I cannot sleep for I am so EXCITED about my forthcoming trip. I am driving to Cincinnati to see my dear friend Joshua and write some songs with him.

Creating music is a spiritual and miraculous process, maybe the closest thing that I will ever experience to having children.

Then on Monday, I am off to Chicago to see another soulmate, Jordan. I love her. I love Chicago.

I can feel that this trip will be healing and enchanting. I can feel it, I can feel it...

I am so grateful to have these two treasures in my life and to see and hug them again.

Oh, I need to go ahead and leave some cookies for Santa.

Grinning,

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...

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
