A Story to be Told and Known by Few

I saw Mrs. O back in September or August--frankly, I don't even remember, but all I remember is that I saw her right after I cut my hair reallly short. Anyway, her and I got to talking, catching up with each other. We talk about our families and such since her and I have always been so close. Well then, of course, it almost goes hand-in-hand, family leads to school and my awkward explanation of my situation, and then I look right at her and she tells me: " Your worst fear is coming true." And, that's just it. That's where I am at. At the time I nodded in agreement because it's true, but it was and it wasn't true. In those summer months, I was nowhere near  the anguish, frustration, anger, compassion, love jumble that fills my heart and bundles up in a ball in the pit of my stomach. That fear, the very fear that paralyzes me, keeps me up countless nights, makes me cry at any thought of it, is coming true right now. I should be optimistic, no one can take that away from me or my family, and we are--no doubt we are. But it's only inevitable, and we accept it and she deserves peace.  I promise I'll update without being vague/cryptic about it. Just, right now, I don't want to explain.

Where do you get inspiration for your arts and crafts?

My inspiration for my arts and crafts is what i'd like to call "My name is Nubia and I'm over-analytical. Yes, it is a disease, thank you." Marcel Proust once advised that you should look further into an object beyond the "normal" or social label. For example, there is a tree. You know it's called a tree but really what is a tree? It has branches, leaves, bark, curves, crisp leaves, a whole ecosystem inside of it. But, most of us just go by day by day just looking it as just that-- a one-dimensional tree. A word to those that suffer from writer's block: It's probably the best thing that has happened to you; step back from your work, look around and start really seeing your environment. For me, I like going to a park and admiring nature, buildings and the people that walk by. Their lines, their lives, their interactions and their interconnectivity brings life to my being, and that feeling of appreciation I transpass to my "art". Call me life's number one fan, call me ishmael. :)

so my mom calls me today and we have a sort of 30 minute conversation all the while my call waiting is beeping--kathleen's on the line. this is probably one of my most favorite conversations ever. my mom was basically pleading me to get out there and find a guy. well, not really just search for men but rather just get out there-- go out with my friends more, go dancing and stuff. and i was shocked.

Me: mom, so you are telling me i can go to a club?
Mom: that's exactly what i want you to do...i like your group of friends...just be honest with me about what you do..it's just dancing...you have the age to be going out..do it now before you're 25 and wondering how you got to that age and alone...and don't use your father as an excuse i'll deal with him.

:D
