Half Blood Hippie?

I have made three entries so far, and have yet to touch on the title of my blog. "Half Blood Hippie" is an odd phrase. But it fits what I feel right now. I recently went on a little weekend getaway with some friends. The people I met and experiences I had were fantastic. I felt free, and I felt happy. It has influenced many things. I made new friends, tried new food, and listened to new music.
I have made the decision to stop shaving. To grow my hair out in preparation for dreadlocks. To use more natural products. To live freely and love fully. I have also chosen to come out as Polyamorous. A friend jokingly said to me: "You Queers, always having to come out as something!" I suppose it seems silly to "come out" in this sense. But the words fit for my purposes. I am telling those close to me because I think it will help them understand my views and actions. I have always been a fan of the idea of "open relationships". But I have come to realize that I don't just dislike singular commitment, I don't think I am actually CAPABLE of long term monogamy. I end up in relationships very fast and they turn serious just as quick. And then I find myself loving that person... but longing for other people. It has always made me feel like a horrible person and it has ended many relationships for me. But ive come to realize that it doesnt mean I care about the person I am with any less. I have the ability to love more than one person at the same time. This has always been a part of me, I just finally have a title for it. And being able to use that word to describe my feelings has made me feel so FREE.
I am so excited about everything life has to offer!
