…after having been RUN OUT of Prague,
between me wailing atop the St. Charles Bridge:
“DOES ANYONE SPEAK ENGLISH?”,
and a Tram full of private “Prague-icans”
informing us happy Ameri-cans:
“YOU ARE NOT ALLLLLL ON THE TRRRRAAAMMMM!!!”,
we left for Amsterdam.
In Amsterdam,
I met Louisa,
a Legal Eagle,
in the body of a little Spiritual Bird.
Louisa was generous, wise, beautiful, and soulful…
and…
I had to GET THE HELL OUT OF THERE
(before I married her!).
I’m not sure if it was the
Rum Parties
that we threw
on the front pew of every Church in town,
or the “pastries” at the coffee shops,
but some internal Magic happened…
ja ja aja
Back in America,
me being the one with the biggest “L” on my forehead,
and having the Least to Lose,
declared:
“IT IS OUR DUTY TO CATAPULT EACH OTHER INTO GREATNESS!”
Heres how it worked:
Hollis, Lary, Daniel, and I,
(intentionally)
in a room for 4 hours:
Hour 1: Hollis Hour.
Hour 2: Daniel Hour
Hour 3: Lary Hour
Hour 4: Grant Hour
With Love, Care, and Concern,
and Outside oF Ego,
the four of us
sensitively shared
with “The Focused One”
what we saw as the their Gifts in Life,
and where we perceived each other
as being STUCK safely
on the Hamster Wheel of THIS life.
Our goal:
Do what you Love, The Money will Follow!
Live Our Dreams!
Trite, but True.
We told Hollis,
(who breathes in Air, and breathes out Greatness)
“Bitch, you need to WRITE that shit down!!!”
To Daniel,
(who is a “real” artist with paint on his shoes,
self-cut hair, passion and drive)
“You ARE Art Daniel!!!!”
Lary, being God incarnate, there was silence..
I have no remembrance
of what they told me,
but I do know
that my life
has never been the same.
If you have ANY friend, anywhere,,
who Loves you as much, or more,
than you Love yourself,
Muster the Courage,
Shed your Ego,
Swallow your Pride,
and get ready
for the Ride of your Life!
Tomorrow isn’t Promised.
