Iron and Wine...This One Playin' On Repeat
This one sits well on a rainy New York night as storylines float through my mind. Raindrops like tears, slip down the window as they do her porcelain skin. Thoughts of him and who they were...all but gone. Memories that slide through her hand with ease. And then there are those...the few, the ones that linger, that will always beautifully linger. Not even wild horses could drag them away...
Can't take my eyes off...The Photography of Matt Wisniewski
Can't take my eyes off the haunting beauty of the work of Matt Wisniewski. Behind quiet eyes the thought that we are what we think about but, we are also so much more. Somehow he captures the depth and mystery of what it is to be human...to be vulnerable.

Zee Avi...Tunes For A Tuesday
You know those nights where sleep does not come easily and the morning comes to soon ? When there is still peace to be made with the darkness of the night and the dream you could not finish. So you go in search of a sort of lullaby for the day and then there is this...

Benefits of Black Eyed Peas...Accidental Brilliance Superfood + Supplement Series
So although there is not a black bean or a chickpea that I ever met that I didn't like, recently I have been eating more black eyed peas and have to say they go right up there on my list of favorite beans. But, did you know that although they are a bean they belong to the vegetable family, and compared to other beans they are considered higher in certain nutrients ? They have so many nutritional benefits that it's worth it to fit them into your weekly menu ideas. Super high in fiber which helps keep cholesterol down and regulate digestion, as well as a great source of iron which carries oxygen throughout the body, organs and cells. An easily digested source of protein which helps support muscles, skin hair and nails, kinda seems like there is nothing this bean can't do. And, since they are commonly associated with good luck, I would say you can't have enough of em'. Lately I have been eating them with sauteed tomato, onion and tofu over brown rice, super easy to whip up and super delicious.

Sunday Simple Wisdom Of Buddha + Somethin' from Mumford and Sons
...and although there is nothing I really see in black and white, instead most things occupy the middle and spaces in between, there is one thing that is black and white..." what you think you become ". Simple and so true....and there is always a chance to change what you think, change what you become. Always a clean white page...

This One Playin' On Repeat...
And turned up loud...for the beat and the zone it takes you to, somehow turns lyrics to poetry...words to religion. And then the question, what is your religion and not the one that lives in a church or a temple, what is your religion, the one that lives in you ?

Van Morrison...Tunes for a Tuesday
...been listening to some of the music that I grew up with lately. Van Morrison was the first album I bought myself. Something about the idea of starting a new year and thinking back on all the dreams you had when you were much younger, when things were perhaps less complicated seems right...
