This is Anne... Complete and Real

I look like a fifties housewife today. I bet Joan Cleaver would be applauding my outfit.

It's cute, though!! A nice big puffy black and white flowered tea-length skirt and a black shirt, and a string of fake pearls. They're really long pearls. It's cute. I know it.

And I'm listening to oldies. The perfect combo!!

It's been relatively a good day. I went grocery shopping today for the first time in ages. It's good to have money to spend on whatever. And it's almost Easter. I like Easter.

Except I think I might be a pagan. I don't know if I am, I know it takes a lot of thought and deciding. It's just, I find so much more beauty and sense in nature, and wildlife, and the seasons and growing and all of those things. I just don't... I don't know. I'm not really thankful about a higher power. I'm more thankful for birds outside my window, and buds on the trees, and plants growing in the garden... Maybe I'm a hippie.

I think I am a hippie in soul. And heart. Well DUH, just about ALL of my friends would probably agree that I AM a hippie in heart and soul, or at least the ones that know me well. I think I was born in the wrong era.

That's okay. I can make up for that. I can live the free, Bohemian, hippie, earthy/flower child in this time and age. I don't care if it doesn't really fit in... I'm happy with that. Most content.

I still don't know if I believe in God. It doesn't seem that important. I believe in music, I believe in art, poetry, literature, and nature. That's what I believe in.

I believe in me. And man.

And that might be good enough.

What a great slice of 'real', to peel back the sealant that most people maintain over their hearts, like they do insurance on their cars, to take care of accidents and any exigency like life or love or the notion that we can never know but need to try.

Aww, I am a flower child not yet gone to seed! Nice post! I can understand some how you feel. I'm a Christian that loves Mother Earth and freely dances naked under the moon!
