I was starting to write a post entitled “What do I do right?” then I remembered something am I focusing on the crap on my shoe or my the ice cream in my hand? I was focusing on the crap!! So lets get my focus back on my cone.
My blessings right now:
- Tony, despite everything he loves me and wants to marry me!!
- I’ve unlocked this great new aspect of my singing voice….wait till next Wednesday!
- My Wedding plans are falling into place quite nicely!
- Despite how cold I am during the day my bed is still warm and comforting.
- The great thing about being cold all the time is I never get to overheated.
- Very soon I will be able to stop hiding who I really am.
- I make a difference in many people’s lives even if it is a small one.
- I have a job, even if it does drive me up a wall.
- Music, without it my life would have no soundtrack.
- Tony, because he’s that important to me.
- My friends, I don’t see them enough because of work but its good to know I have them.
- A place to sleep at night.
- Internet access!!! I think I’d die with out it.
- Relatives that are just giving me things for my life with Tony.
- That people care about me, even if I don’t always see it.
- My laptop and its back-lit keyboard, the joys of blogging in the dark!!
- The will to carry on.
- Karaoke night at the bar! Drunken singing for the win!!
- Ash, the most lovable cat ever!
- Tony, I love him so much.
I am thankful for all these things in my life. If you couldn’t tell Tony is incredibly important to me so much that I counted him 3 times!! I have no idea where I would be without him. To be quite honest Tony is one of the best things that has ever happening to me and it is a true blessing that he wants to keep me for the rest of his life.
I need to get some sleep. I am starting my yoga practice back up today.

Every Tuesday at 4pm EST for me it is Hugnation time. Hugnation is a weekly digital group non-denominational prayer as Halcyon puts it.
I’ve gotten some very good concepts from Hugnation. Such as Stripping away people’s “bastard layers” (think of an onion) to get to their center, where we are all the same. There is also a video that Halcyon made called Crap or The Cone Which is basically you have to know where your focus is.
I think that Hugnation is the best thing since sliced bread!! I really want to take it and run with it some how. There are so many Love outlets springing up all over the place. There is the Hug Deli, Free Hugs Campaign and there are probably ones I don’t even know about!!
I want to be a part of this movement!!
I know what you’re saying…. “But Freya I’ve seen you in your ‘Free Hugs’ shirt in the wild before” or “Freya, you gave me a hug just the other day.” Or ever “What are you some kind of commie-hippie person!?!?!?” “For crying out loud you’re named after a love Goddess!!”
I’m not a commie, Russ, but I can’t say that so much about being a hippie….sorry.
So right now I’m trying to think…..How do I go about this?? Halcyon already has the weekly live broadcast, Hug Deli already has the stand, Free Hugs Campaign….well you can do that anywhere! So What do I do? What can I add to this great movement??
There are so many ways I could take this to include my personality. Granted most things I like don’t lend themselve very well to a movement like this i.e. zombies and vampires…..see what I mean?
So what do I do? I thought of taking the idea of the Hug Deli and making a hug bank….but that’s to closely related.
As you can tell I’m still in the brainstorming phase of this…..I have a long way to go yet. Any input would be welcomed.

Tony and I went to see New Moon on Sunday and afterwords he told me that out of all of the books that New Moon was his favorite even though he said “If I say why it will upset you” I still had to know why……
He identified with Bella. When I left. I honestly forgot about that until Tony said it. It was like my heart was re-broken.
This will never go away. I don’t think I can ever watch New Moon again, or read it for that matter.
I now realize that I’m more like Edward than I ever thought. It’s a known fact that Tony is like a drug to me, my own personal heroin, and now to see this and to put it with everything else…..
I am the bad guy.
I’m just hoping that he will stay with me as long as we both shall live.
Am I The Phantom (of The Opera) as well?
