frida
I used to think I was the strangest person in the world but then I thought
there are so many people in the world, there must be someone just like me who feels
bizarre and flawed in the same ways I do. I would imagine her, and imagine that
she must be out there thinking of me too. Well, I hope that if you are out there and
read this and know that, yes, it's true I'm here, and I'm just as strange as you.
-Frida Kahlo
"Las dos Fridas" (The Two Fridas) from today's visit to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.

And aren't we glad to know her!
i feel incredibly lucky to have come across a few people who are my soul twins. we read each other's thoughts and our humors resonate with each other. we're not bound by blood, but it feels like our heartstrings are intertwined.
Thank you for posting this picture and this quote...just what I needed to see today...I can only imagine how stunning her work must be up close and personal....xoxo
I love Frida - and it's words like this that make me love her even more.
