Of what are you a connoisseur?

Posted on Oct 2nd, 2008 by Sarah : Music Maker Sarah
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for October 01, 2008:

I am a connoisseur of music, to be sure, and art. But that's just by virtue of taking many many art and music history classes.

I am a connoisseur of affection. Hugs, kisses, caresses. I know what is nice and what is not nice, and what is sometimes nice even though it's mostly not nice. What elicits a rapid pulse and shallow breathing. What elicits relaxation. What affection elicits more affection, and what affection is just for giving. What affection is expressive of love, of longing, of romance, of friendship. When there is too much affection, and when there is too much.

I am big on affection.

When was the last time you fell?

This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for September 30, 2008:

I fell when I was drunk, and got a bruise on my knee.
I fell when my friend tried to hug me, and I lost my balance, and got a bruise on my leg.
I fell behind in my studies. I'm trying to catch up, but right now instead of reading I am doing this! :D
I think I'm falling in love.

I'm really quite clumsy when it comes to the last one. Always falling..

To live, breathe, and try to improve my own life and the lives of others. Or, if not improve them, at least not fuck them up.

How do your emotions affect your body?

Posted on Oct 23rd, 2008 by Sarah : Music Maker Sarah
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for October 20, 2008:

Your body is the originator of your emotions. As is your mind. There is a false dichotomy between mind and body, between heart and mind. There is a reason we call emotions "feelings."

Whatever you feel in your mind you will feel in your body. Whatever you feel in your body you will feel in your mind. If you feel pain in your body you will feel pain in your mind will feel pain in your body will feel pain in your mind. Your job as a living breathing happy individual is to override the pain with joy. "At least I still have a working body, at least my body is telling me what's wrong with it." Try to be less stressful in your mind and your body will respond with relaxation and joy as well.

Which foreign country or culture do you feel most drawn toward?

While I love Paris...

Indian culture is very appealing to me. In art, food, music, language, religion, and worldview. What I have studied of all of these things seem truly beautiful.

Also, I LOVE Vindaloo.
