Inner-Musings and Mis-Adventures: Thanks to Desdemona, I am Ready to Get Laid (I Knew That Would Get Your Attention)

This blog is an on-going work in progress, just like its creator. The names have been changed to protect the innocent, and the not-so-innocent. The events portrayed are as true and accurate as my perspective and memory allows, and are subject to change without further notice in the future. You will not find any Pay Per Post on my blog... No advertising. No peddling of anything other than my personal thoughts, opinions, and experiences... If you are reading my words it is because you are choosing to share a birds-eye view into my playground, not because I am pounding down your door asking to come in out the elements uninvited. With all of that out of the way, I really am glad you are here…

Thanks to Desdemona, I am Ready to Get Laid (I Knew That Would Get Your Attention)

Dear Friends;

If plants are truly an indication of our capacity to share in a successful relationship- then I am ready.

My plant, Desdemona has taken over. It is as if she is a throw back to a pre-historic era. A time where everything was larger and in excess. At the very least, thriving with beauty and greatness.

Desdemona is beautiful indeed. Her leaves are large and supple filled with exquisite mottled color. A grand mix of green and white. Many of her leaves span the size of my hands. She is a Marbled Pothos. And I love her greatly. I spoil her with purified water and have her housed in a cloisonné pot I purchased on one of my many travels. She resides on top of my antique chest of drawers, where she has quite taken over. She is now extending over the sides and front making it difficult to access the contents within the drawers.

She brings me such a quiet pleasure. And I truly love her, this houseplant experiment of mine.

I care for her. I love her. And she brings me peace. I have never thought I would derive so much emotion from a plant, but I do. I love her simplicity and vibrancy, the energy of her very life.

Air, water, care, love, space, time, attention, and devotion. All the aspects of a relationship. In such a perspective, every connection I have will have the possibilities of such epic proportions and grandness.
