That rush of endorphins when I get off my exercycle or a treadmill after a workout

(Well I don't know if they make me smile, but they evoke the first two qualities)

I can't think of a third. Damn. I'm sure I'll know it when I feel it.

Meanwhile...

Give me three beautiful (tangible) things you can see right now, from where you're sitting.

Two of my children (counted as one ;))

(If it weren't dark) The creek behind my apartment. It's so peaceful to walk down there.

A print of Van Gogh's "Sunflowers"

I had: 3 songs that lift you, inspire you or make you feel joy.

Fonseca - Lagartija Azul (I don't know why, it just makes me happy)
Theresa Thomasen - The Rain Is Over and Gone (lyrics taken from Song of Solomon, WAY fun to sing)
Sade - By Your Side (a romantic gesture that completely won me over once, causing me to re-evaluate how I approach relationships and my fears surrounding them)

Film-it's a tie between The Crying Game and Brokeback Mountain. Probably Crying Game slightly more, as I saw it umpteen times. I know now that that's when I started figuring things out for myself. The first time I saw it left me shattered.

Book-Animal Farm, in high school. I thought it would be a stupid story. I could add Shirley Jackson's The Lottery, which I read in the same class. When I started reading that story, I thought it would be the dumbest thing ever. A bunch of people gathering in a park. My teacher didn't fool around with insipid stuff.

If art counts, then my own art, in a way :). I was a life model in college. My posing assignments certainly weren't sexual, but I was amazed at the disconnect between how I felt my body looked, and what came out on the students' canvasses. I thought they had the wrong person. I try to remember that experience now, when I have aging and sexual issues.

That's a really hard question, so repeat, please ;).

- A short story that I read at least 30 years ago which had the theme of "do it scared." It helped me learn that I don't have to wait until I'm no longer afraid to do things.

- A documentary on preparing the bodies of dead loved ones at home. The idea was horrifying to me before that, and it showed me how much it could be a beautiful and connecting ritual that can help get you through the initial pain of losing someone you love dearly.

- An article on women with attention deficit disorder, which I read shortly after I turned 40. I sobbed - deeply, loudly, uncontrollably - for at least 10 minutes after I read it, because at that time, even though I was clearly intelligent, I was convinced that I was simply incompetent, and my self-esteem was at its lowest point ever because I could see what I needed to do in my life but felt so incapable of doing so many things.

gm3 memories of christmas. as an adult or a child.


as a child:

my first christmas ever. i was 6 and had been living with my parents for 3 weeks. it was amazing.

the year my dad brought home the first foster dog from work. she was a Rottweiler called "Sally" who wasnt aggressive enough to be a K9 cadet. she would have never made it to graduation. we had her for 8 months before she was adopted. she was the first dog i ever knew that had a sense of humor.

as an adult:

this year is shaping up to be surprisingly good so far. if all goes well, things may be turning around. (provided we live past friday of course)

GM3 holiday traditions you (or your family) invented.


Well, when I was with N (my only "family" experience as an adult; we lived together for ten years), we had a Christmas tradition where we gave our closest friends some cool thing out of our home that we didn't use much, and they did the same to us. It was a "recycle, rejoice" thing.

When I was a kid, my mom made these marshmallow snowmen we obsessed over till we were like in our forties and realized she had thrown them out—they were hard as rocks but we couldn't believe she'd thrown them out, LOL

My sister (I'll have to live vicariously through one of hers), used to give their first dog Mac a little doll, his "Christmas baby" that he tore apart and we would take ghoulish pictures of him doing so.
