Six weeks, six full weeks in Colorado; yet it feels like
forever (in a good way). I am beyond blissed out---and exactly where I need to
be at this moment in time. I know this for sure because every thing has fallen
in to place so absolutely perfectly for me. That was not exactly the case for
getting to Colorado though—it was a rough start. Yet, at times, good things
take effort—obstacles to overcome. At present time, I am all settled in—I have
a sweet little apartment right in the heart of all the goodness, and less than
one mile from my super astounding job. Initially, I was unsure about my work
place—being that it is Starbucks. I promised myself that I would never work for
a major corporation again, never be part of the ‘man’. Yet, to my surprise, it
is incredibly laid back and we are allowed to be individuals. All the girls
that I work with are super sweet and caring. The job is easy and fun—and I am
getting paid fairly well. I am really happy at work, and feeling incredibly
blessed to have such a eminent job. In addition, it only takes me about seven
minutes (via bike) to get to work in the morning. I am full time and Monday-Friday.
So I have weekends all to myself.
I am meeting
such beautiful people and making wonderful friends. Everyday I am in awe at how perfectly beautiful everything is
turning out. My best friend (and ex-boyfriend), is also living in the city (and
very soon will be my roommate). It has been nice to spend time with him—and
have a little piece of my past currently in my present. On my free time (weekends),
I have been spending my time and money on live music and art. It has been such
a treat for me---I love live music and dance parties! My spiritual and physical
body have been radiating, I am super happy and excited for every moment of now.
I am also looking forward to all the upcoming events for the year: next week I
start my herbalist program, I am going to start vending and making art and
tinctures for sale, also—a Colorado summer! Stoked! Then, Burning Man, followed
by a potential trip to Egypt! All is lovely and entirely too flawless. I am blessed
and happy to be Ashley Marie Gonzalez, happy to be in my skin, happy to be on
Earth. Thank you all for sharing this time with me here.
