L'aura del campo


'é a lua, é a lua, na quintana dos mortos'
♣ Federico García Lorca ♣


Higgins Street Bridge, April 25th  2009, Missoula, Montana


L'aura del campo. A breeze in the meadow. So it began the last day of Spring, 2005; on the 16th day of the month of Light of the year 162. This is a supplement to my daily journal written to a friend, my muse; notes I do not share. Here I will share what the breeze has whispered to me.

Congratulations on making it to the last week of the competition! You all should be proud! How do you celebrate your successes? What is your favorite thing to give yourself as a reward?

I'm not a celebrator.

I have thought about this prompt and literally cannot come up with an answer. After reading other writer's blogs I still don't know.

I'm not saying that we are a bunch of party-poopers... but... yeah, appears that way.

Although... partying isn't quite the same as celebrating as I'm sure someone would point out if anyone were reading this and commenting.

A comment is grounds for celebration. It makes me feel visible.

But I'm not going to reward myself in any way that society considers a celebration. When other people graduate from school or college they celebrate, right? I didn't. When I am acknowledged for something I write here, I will probably share my joy. I'm sure that may annoy some people, but I'm chronically depressed, so it's more like coming up for a breath. If I'm too joyful it borders on mania... and take my word... that's not good.

If it's a big celebration (like a birthday party or winning the baseball championship in high school) and others want to include me, I hide.

It's 10 a.m. now. I'm still drinking my first coffee with sugar and a dab of butter. Breakfast will be two hot dogs on a piece of bread. I've showered. I'll go out today to visit a friend for lunch. Yesterday I didn't leave. I already celebrated the day by bothering to get out of bed.
