Hold on to the seat belts....!

What an absolute whirlwind the last few weeks have been!!! Staying up all night for henna parties in Michigan....then catching a red eye flight home after days on stand by, getting home by three am and then waking up for the market at 6am! Program, family visiting and then of course the big biggety--my little bro got married!! Amazing wedding day---soo awesome. I am going to try and figure how to get pics up.
I find myself writing in my mind little blogs all the time but I don't always have access to the net. A few titles I thought up were-
-Going Raw (in the food sense:)
-Mehndi Momma madness ( High school graduates get tats at 11-4 am from me and my momma)
-Detroit and it's amazing historic ruins..........
So this week we are doing a double festival for the first time. A veggie food stall at the downtown farmers market in SLC and the Venture Outdoors festival. It should be wild!!!
Favorite quote right now:

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. 1807–1882

55. A Psalm of Life

What the Heart of the Young Man Said to the Psalmist

TELL me not, in mournful numbers,
Life is but an empty dream!—
For the soul is dead that slumbers,
And things are not what they seem.
Life is real! Life is earnest!	5
And the grave is not its goal;
Dust thou art, to dust returnest,
Was not spoken of the soul.
Not enjoyment, and not sorrow,
Is our destined end or way;	10
But to act, that each to-morrow
Find us farther than to-day.
Art is long, and Time is fleeting,
And our hearts, though stout and brave,
Still, like muffled drums, are beating	15
Funeral marches to the grave.
In the world's broad field of battle,
In the bivouac of Life,
Be not like dumb, driven cattle!
Be a hero in the strife!	20
Trust no Future, howe'er pleasant!
Let the dead Past bury its dead!
Act,—act in the living Present!
Heart within, and God o'erhead!
Lives of great men all remind us	25
We can make our lives sublime,
And, departing, leave behind us
Footprints on the sands of time;
Footprints, that perhaps another,
Sailing o'er life's solemn main,	30
A forlorn and shipwrecked brother,
Seeing, shall take heart again.
Let us, then, be up and doing,
With a heart for any fate;
Still achieving, still pursuing,	35
Learn to labor and to wait.
