This Is Not a Rehearsal People… This is Real Life! Bibiána Baltovičová and Adam Bardy bring to the moment a kind of raw reality captured by the authentic nature of still photography, shot by Branislav Simoncik for Vogue Portugal, April 202o. We will not forgo our need to connect. We will just expand our ideas of what intellectual connection really means. We must break through the barriers of this face mask to make a real connection. This will ask we go far outside of our comfort zone. It will demand that we see inside the soul. The art of the imagination will take center stage, as all our pent up passion will release in a riotous rage. There Is Nothing to Fear. We are closer than ever to our true selves. We, in fact, can be in charge of such a chaotic event. By allowing our bodies to be ready to accept such a change of events. We must make a change. Today is our day. Let’s Throw Away Our Need to Project… Let’s Come Together and Connect to Protect.
I do a powerful soul journey every day at noon. This was introduced to me by the strongest woman I have the fortune of knowing well, my mother. My journey has become one of movement. I found myself flying through the skies of my soul on a journey to see the world’s truth. I choose to take off the Veil of Illusion and venture to see the truth as it stands. Pain is a particular matter. I have been subject to much of it throughout my life. That is just a fact. I don’t know if that has played a roll in my openness to seeking this state. However, our feelings aren’t feeble, they make us what we are.
Hope is a notion we never let go… as we walk the hallowed halls of existence we are touched by the truth of our soul. Objects are subject to what we deflect. Truth is a concept we easily forget. We are individuals mighty in our quest to survive. We are a connected spirit moved by a need to thrive. We are a people one and for all. We are a force of nature… Teeter One and Together We Shall Fall.
Your Lips I do Miss… A Taste of Pure Bliss… But, This I Can’t Deny… A KISS IS NEVER JUST A KISS!!! It is not the case that a kiss is just a kiss. A hug is just a hug. A hand-shake is just a hand-shake. These are the means by which we express our most intimate feelings. One that’s range from private to public, from subtle to significant. We have never been more in touch with our mechanisms for such an interaction. Touching has never come under such scrutiny. We touch to communicate our feelings. We are and forever and will forever be feeling animals! That will not change. IT’S WRITTEN IN OUR DNA…
Freedom on Hold
a time to be bold
step into the fold
find your own truth
reach for the sky
and there you will fly
to a place of connection
to a place of protection
today we shall find
if only in the mind
what hurts us does heal us
what breaks us does bind
time turns, but, is never blind
to this world that feels unkind
reach deep inside and you will find
a strength you never knew…
ALIVE!
