Rita and The PocketPeople

Okay, so I finally got talked into blogging last night when my husband and I were watching "Julie and Julia." I liked the movie alright, but as you get to know me, you'll understand how a mission like that is far more scary to me than say...oh...trying to change the world with little beings I like to call "PocketPeople."

My hubs, (a hairy-chested Jewish man:))) said,"you should totally be blogging about The PocketPeople."

Hmmmm...but what do I blog about? Do I talk about how it all got started, or do I just start where I am and trust the natural process? Watch it all evolve? Do I get personal or do I just keep it all PP talk?

Honestly, I kind of like the idea of people falling in love with the
PocketPeople FIRST; then start to WONDER about where they came
from, what they do and why they do it. Who are these little PocketPeople anyway?

They aren't Smurfs and they aren't Muppets. They aren't 'dolls' and they don't eat...well, at least not in my vision. But these little beings do carry a very magical energy.

Part of me believes that every true artist finds his passion by stealing little bits and pieces of every experience, every movie , every song, every painting and book and person you meet - all the hours of conversations, over-hearings, adding-ins, taking-outs. It just happens. But take it with LOVE. Take it and make it authentically something else.

I don't believe that anything is original at this point. Just a billion variations of millions of ideas and thoughts and words and emotions that have been circling the Universe for all of time. Each of us just expressing what is alive in us. If you want to, you can figure out exactly what you are meant to do. I mean precisely. This is PocketPeople to me.

Of course, I may just change my mind but for now--The PocketPeople are coming...
