Part of your world...

"Look at this stuff
Isn't it neat?
Wouldn't you think my collection's complete?
Wouldn't you think I'm the girl
The girl who has everything?
Look at this trove
Treasures untold
How many wonders can one cavern hold?
Looking around here you think
Sure, she's got everything
I've got gadgets and gizmos a-plenty
I've got whozits and whatzits galore
You want thingamabobs?
I've got twenty!
But who cares?
No big deal
I want more

I wanna be where the people are
I wanna see, wanna see them dancin'
Walking around on those - what do you call 'em?
Oh - feet!

Flippin' your fins, you don't get too far
Legs are required for jumping, dancing
Strolling along down a - what's that word again?
Street

Up where they walk, up where they run
Up where they stay all day in the sun
Wanderin' free - wish I could be
Part of that world

What would I give if I could live out of these waters?
What would I pay to spend a day warm on the sand?
Bet'cha on land they understand
That they don't reprimand their daughters
Proper women sick of swimmin'
Ready to stand

And ready to know what the people know
Ask 'em my questions and get some answers
What's a fire and why does it - what's the word?
Burn?

When's it my turn?
Wouldn't I love, love to explore that world up above?
Out of the sea
Wish I could be
Part of that world
"

"Part of Your World" from Disney's "The Little Mermaid"

Hi everyone… as you all know, I've been working on "myself." As part of that process, I've come to the conclusion that I need to experience life. For far too long, I've been isolated from the world… not in a crazy Howard Hughes sort of way, but just that I've always felt a bit removed from finding true happiness… you know, in sort of a 'heart held captive in a Rapunzel-esque type of tower' way, hidden and held prisoner.

This is where the cute little song from "The Little Mermaid" comes in. For starters, I've had it stuck in my head for quite awhile. However, what strikes me most about the song is that I feel the same things that Ariel is singing about. 

On the surface, many people would think that I have everything … a good job, a nice smile and the ability to rock a miniskirt (among other things). For me, that's not enough, I want to experience life and join in the fun and exciting world out there. In essence, be part of THAT world. I really do feel that I'm sitting on the outside, staring in… and I'm finally ready to venture forth.

As I said, I'm not hermit or anything… I've been out and about in the world, shopping, museums, trying new restaurants, shopping, going on my photographic expeditions, shopping, visiting amusement parks and traveling across the country and into Canada…lol, I've even shot automatic weapons with the ATF (btw, have I mentioned shopping???)! Even with all of that, I still feel like there's something missing; the problem, of course, is that I'm still trying to figure out what THAT is.

I mean, there's the easy 'fun' stuff… I'd love to walk down the runway in a fashion show, model in a photo shoot (watch out Instyle, here I come) or even walk down a beach at sunset with my true love. BTW, I do come with modeling cred… ask Taleen about my "Project Runway" strut!

I'm still yearning for other fun (and safe) experiences out there… does anyone have any suggestions? Anyone with any cool hookups? Please let me know either by blog response or private message.

I'm also having my Maslow's Hierarchy moments too. I would also like to feel that I'm making a difference in the world. Although my work in the law is one means of making a difference, I'm hoping to do more. I have a couple of ideas there, but I'm also open to other suggestions.

Anyhow, I guess I just want to pick everyone's brains for ideas about how to "live life to the fullest?" Btw, before anyone suggests "Kacee, broaden those horizons by going out with me," you better put some serious thought and creativity into it… Carl's Jr (even with full beverage bar privileges) isn't going to work…lol

I look forward to hearing what you all think!

Love,

Kacee
