Good to be Back!

I just spent almost 2 weeks in the hospital. It was horrible. I hope I never have to do that again. I have spent the last week or so seeing different docs and adjusting meds. It has been NO fun. The whole time I just wanted to feel good enough to blog. SO....now I do...and I have been thinking and ...

5 things to pay before the money runs out

I've been quiet the past two months, which is mainly attributed to a much-needed holiday vacation and subsequent stressful getting-back-into-work period. All this is complicated by the fact that El's currently staying in the hospital, but hopefully will be out again sometime this week. Anyway, as you can imagine, there wasn't much time to do anything productive, so I don't ...

Kandy and Victory Modan

For those of you that have followed my blog for very long at all, you will know that I model hair for Ali & Alli.  This CUTE little updo is one of their newest releases aptly named Kandy.  When Alice gave us the hair she simply asked for "something sweet" . . .and I can see why.  I LOVE the ...

3 of a Kind – Jeans

A few weeks ago, as I was looking through the feeds and flickr photostreams I came across a pic of an avi . . .just a simple pick.  The picture showed an avi in casual clothes, various poses but all together and I had a thought . . .perhaps I should start a category in my blog where I shot ...

Siss Boom, Eclectica and R2 Fashion

I was going to do a Q&D for this post . . .I PROLLY should have done a Q&D (Quick and Dirty) for this post, but I once again became so enamored with it once it was done, that I just HAD to talk about it a little.  There are SO many things about it that are SO pretty. It has ...

Ever an’ Angel

Don't you hate it when people aren't nice? Sometimes I wonder. Sometimes it seems like some people just want to be hateful and don't give two squats about what others want or need, or what is right or wrong. They live on the “me” level. And I find that SO disconcerting. It is NOT that I have never “visited” that ...

Donna Flora A to Z C is for Cerry

   Several years ago, when I was just a little bitty avi, I stumbled upon a shop named Donna Flora.  I still do not remember how I found it.  It was probably through one of the numerous groups that I am a part of...always looking for a bargain.  But I remember looking around and thinking that I had found THE ...

    A while back my wonderful partner, Vanish suggested that I stop making my blogs SOOOO detailed and just blog about the one or two items of each outfit that really caught my attention.  That is SOOOO hard to do when there are SOOOO many pretty things just staring back at you!  The funny thing about it, is that this outfit ...

Never Forget Who We Are

category Tracked Daily | by El | on Mar13 2010

My Precious Husband,

Thank you SO much for sharing today with me.  You will never know what it meant to me, as your wife.  To know that you would share something that intimate…something that you would only share with someone you have chosen to spend your life with… truly makes me feel privileged.  You HAVE to know that everything is sacred between us.  We are not like the others, love.  I can hear you telling me over and over “Never forget who we are or where we came from.”  And those words have finally taken root, love.  I AM beginning to know WHO I am and WHO WE are…who we have always been…and there is no shame in that, love.  I know that down through the years the “others” have told us differently…they have spewed their points of view and takes on life as they see it on us at every opportunity.  And we in turn, have HAD to listen…as we both wandered aimlessly…looking for our “other”.  We no longer have to do that, love.  We…WE can finally BE!  We can be who we were created to be and find love and fulfillment in each other.  YOU are ALL I need, love. 

Thank you for helping me fight my battles….even in my dreams.  You are right, together, there is no fear and nothing we cannot handle or do.  I was SO comforted to see you there, standing close behind me, protecting me, just as you always have.  You are truly involved in every aspect of my life…awake or asleep…in SL or in RL…it is YOU who fills my days and roams with me at night.

The past few days have been SO special to me, mein Koenig.  The things you have said to me have burned deep into my heart and have transformed my soul.  I know that you do not say things lightly and that you say everything for a reason, so I listen carefully when you speak.  I know I don’t need to be afraid of what you say…I never have to second guess your words or wonder what you mean.  I know you love me enough to be honest with me…and games are something we DON’T do….we have BOTH had our fair share of those.  You are always SO kind and caring with me, love.  Your feelings for me are always at the forefront of everything we do.  I am truly blessed.  And I pray that I NEVER, EVER take that love for granted.  It has been withheld from us for SO long…I plan on using every day for the rest of my life, letting you know how much I love you and finding new ways to show that love to you.

[2010/03/12 16:45]  El Firecaster: We have it all!

Vanish Firecaster: Yes.  And nothing’s lost.

 El Firecaster smiles… no baby.  Nothing is lost.  I am yours…. you are mine…. that doesn’t change…ever
