zen and the art of

I don't work tomorrow though which is a sweet fruit of pleasure for me to think about. I also got pizzaid! word doggy! that means I can spend my free time shopping and buying strangers coffee. I vow to buy one stranger a coffee tomorrow. Even if I just pay for the person behind me. I am looking for a particular book. I am sure I will find it. Actually two books that kind of go hand in hand. One is zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance (i believe i can find it at attic books) and also the second part which is lila both are by robert m. pirsig. I read the beginning of it at wryans house and he wouldn't let me borrow it. He was certain I had to buy both. I skimmed lila briefly in high school but my mind was in no place alongside my makeup application to even begin to absorb any of it.
I believe it is fine to switch hats. to have different dimensions of your person. provided your principles stay the same. I can be so many things to so many people. I do not flee from my foundation. I can be a mother figure to my nephews when they need it. I can be the sappy girl when my friend needs a shoulder. I can be strong willed and sturdy when someone is weak. This is not a masquerade, but more a way of adapting to situations as they arise. Becoming what is needed in a situation instead of passing the puck. I am always the same person, in that I am many people. all people. I would not say that when I am being strong for someone who is feeling weak that I am strong all the time. I need someone to put on that hat for me when I cannot find it. you are all people too.
I am feeling non-resistant

Should be a pretty great day.
