larger than life

i've just read a great quote, by anais nin: "life expands or contracts according to risk taken."

if you've been following these past few weeks, you'll know i suffered a heartbreak.

and as tempted as i may be to beat myself up for ignoring the many (and tireless) voices of wisdom that urged me these last 2 years to walk - and sometimes, to RUN away, i won't. the spirit behind my tenacious infatuation with him was inspired by beauty and passion. and as ms nin points out, it is our ability to embrace challenges and take risks that make life worth living. sometimes, we really fuck up. but sometimes, whole new worlds unfurl before us and frankly, that's what it's all about...

and anyway, i'm the one who said a few years back, in my silly profile, that i'm "larger than life." shit, with the amount of risks i take, i sure wasn't kidding!

sigh

It's good to see you are doing well these days. I haven't seen you since we took a stroll down Queen West area in Toronto and hung out at the Drake. Feel free to send me a note at cyberites@hotmail.com if you'd like to catch up.
