Live Authentic Here is an inspiring story, inspired by Woody Allen's Blue Jasmine, that I wanted to share. How many times have we found ourselves living a lie? Just a little lie? Sometimes it is harder to be real and be who we are than it is to be who we think he {she-they-them} want... Continue Reading →

Great review on Lana Del Rey’s performance in Dallas this week by Dallas’ own singer/songwriter/blogger, Sarah Sellers…enjoy!
Disclaimer 1: I am a Lana Del Rey fan
Disclaimer 2: I am a singer
When I first heard Lana Del Rey’s breakout single “Video Games” I have to admit…I wasn’t completely sold, but I was definitely intrigued. Her seductive tone and alto range was different and refreshing next to the powerhouse vocal stylings we’ve seemingly come to expect from female pop vocalists. She’s no Beyonce or Ariana Grande, she’s Lana. And the throng of screeching teenage girls at Wednesday night’s show proved that Lana doesn’t need to prove herself to anyone.
From the time she sauntered onstage in a simple, off the shoulder red dress with no shoes to the first line out of her mouth, “My pussy tastes like pepsi-cola”, the 6,000 sold-out theater erupted as if Harry Styles had taken his shirt off and pledged to make out with one lucky fan in attendance. I don’t even…

I was at an exhibit at the Dallas Museum of Art this year and snapped a pic of part of an installation. I love this brief section from Norman Mailer on love, women and marriage. I think it is actually quite beautiful to ponder. After having a few relationships of my own, I find this... Continue Reading →

I wanted to share this article that was shared out by Facebook.com/deehillphotography and written by Orsolya Hajnali so beautifully that it made me cry. Love is a dance, a connection between two beings that desire to be in the journey together, to grow, experience, and to explore together this present moment and all the moments... Continue Reading →
Nothing feeds my soul like the moon, perhaps because I am a cancer in the zodiac and we are governed by the moon. I stayed up last night until 4 this morning with my Chiminea flaming, hot coffee and my trusty camera catching the different phases of the lunar eclipse. It was magical. Here... Continue Reading →
One of my loves as an artist is in creating mini works of art from little things I have found and love. What started as a hobby many years ago became a passion in collecting and creating. Today, in my spare time, I create little jewelry treasures made from findings I pick up every where. They... Continue Reading →
I discovered this article and had to share here on Saturday Soul. Discovering our uniqueness is something that is important to all of us and I believe the journey we are on is leading us to that full awareness of our true selves. How can we not accept ourselves just for who we are? Many people struggle with... Continue Reading →
My mouth is a fire escape. The words coming out don’t care that they are naked. There is something burning in there. ― Andrea Gibson, The Madness Vase I love this quote from Andrea Gibson. Makes me think of so many times when words were burning inside of me but I was too afraid to say them,... Continue Reading →

"I am not what happens to me. I choose who I become." ~ Carl Jung Someone told me once that you can live your life by consequence or you can live your life by choice. I want to live by choice. It is not always easy, in fact, it is usually a challenge. When you take... Continue Reading →
Life happens and sometimes it happens rough. It's like being out on the sea when a storm blows up and there is no where you can go or hide. You simply have to batten down the hatches and ride out the storm. Life is like that. Many years ago I went through a terrible divorce... Continue Reading →
I read this poem today and it stopped me in my tracks, beautiful and sad…

The eyes of a broken soul watch
In her dark curls
A headband of nightmares glitters
thousands of wilting flowers
Twisting
Turning
Like splintered snowflakes
they drift in empty sounds
The eyes of broken soul wait
Her presence
an anxious shadow
that whispers darkness
into vacant atmospheres
The eyes of a broken soul yearn
a velvet cry that creeps from the corners
of an ancient dream
Thick fog moving from dead winters
Fractured stardust gathering
on soft, pallid hands
The eyes of a broken soul hunger
for stolen sweetness
melting between shattered lips
diamond skin and jasmine bones
It’s almost spring and love is on everyone’s mind, time to get out your bike and go riding!
Bicycles and other Love Stories
I rode my bicycle down the street
inexperience got my toes caught in the spokes
tore them to shreds
yes, the hub of the wheel (that makes the bike go)
how did I know?
Then there was the speed queen experiment
down the sticky asphalt hill
no fear Sandy is here
Oh I can take this
