I LOVE Billy Bob Thornton!

Well it's, once again been forever since I blogged... Thank the spanking God's I am not a bottom or I am sure I wouldn't be able to sit!

Things have been busy at Dragonfly's Den with classes, workshops, parties, coaching and sessions! Dragonfly's Den is constantly growing and changing, it's such a work in progress, the only thing that stays the same is change! The balance that is life is constantly changing! Ups and downs are a part of life you cannot have one without the other, sometimes its hard to accept this!

I was watching Billy Bob Thornton on Bravo's "Inside the Actor's Studio" the other day and he said something really really profound and revealing! I will try and directly quote what he said but it may not be word for word...

He and James Lipton were discussing how you cannot have happiness without sadness and that he, Billy Bob, always feels both at all times. When asked to explain he said (again it may not be entirely word for word but you will see the gist of it)...

"When I see someone at a restaurant eating alone, I feel happy because they are eating and can afford to eat at a restaurant, but I also feel sad because they are eating alone."

Then James asked what is the antidote for sadness and Billy Bob said there wasn't one...

And I was reminded about how life is not about having or not having something but about FEELING it whatever it is feel that emotion evoked. Rejoice in the fact you have both feelings at the same time allow yourself to feel each moment as it happens within you... And suddenly all the ups and down, the moments of deep sadness and anger recently in my life had their happiness too, and I began to ponder them. How I was happy I had learned and grown from it, happy with the way I dealt with it and behaved because of it. Most of all I was happy I had felt it truly felt it, and happy with myself because of it.

See even old Domme's can learn new tricks LOL

Then Billy Bob went on to say he could not understand people who were unhappy when others were happy. This was in reference to him being called weird because he carried around Angelina Jolie's blood in a vial around his neck. He said something like this...

"If your happy and one of the weirdest people who ever lived.. SO WHAT! If your happy and not hurting anyone why would others be unhappy with that?"

I LOVE Billy Bob Thornton, I truly do! He is openminded, compassionate, honest, empathic, sensitive and so strong in his beliefs, whats not to love about a person like that! He makes me proud to be weird!

Thank you Billy Bob Thornton for saying those things. Simple words with great meaning and depth!
