Alice Part Two: Keep Wandering

My heart is open and feeling the tug of love that already exists, but is also open and feeling the tantalizing potential of love that will exist. Alice often feels a vibration similar to that of a recently strummed guitar string, and it sings "good love is on the way". The acuteness of feeling doesn't tell her when or how or who but the potential is there. It seems there is a special place in the open envelope, with a specific shape, depth, that someone will fit into perfectly. Only then will my heart fold back up, when there is someone in there to keep Alice with my face company. Someone who will understand her. They will be folded up side by side and that will mark another shifting moment in my life, just as this opening has done. One day my heart may open again, he may need to walk away, but the shifting that occurred will remain crucial to the constant creation of planet Me.

And finally, my heart has opened and is yearning to follow passion. This last feeling creates the most wonder in Alice's land. In its open state my heart can awaken Alice to new opportunities of passion. These, these are bright. These are tangible. These are numerous.
And these inspire much:

Firstly, creation: They inspire the creation of musical words which turn into lyrical sentences and eventually whole compositions of my thoughts.
Secondly, observation: They open my eyes. So much is beautiful. That man over there, he is a famous painting, of Van Gogh's I believe. Sun. Oh sun, sun, sun. You leave behind such a glorious golden dust.
Lastly, opportunity: They turn me towards opportunity. The opportunity to be a people's person, a learner of people, a helper of people. And then there is the opportunity of exploration through absorbing new knowledge, through travel. Lest I forget the opportunity of the unknown, which of course, is the most abundant, the most exhilirating, and creates the most wonder for dear Alice.

Stay wide-eyed Alice. Keep wandering. Keep feeling. I am learning much from your Wonderland and my open heart.
