halloween wishes + an invitation

Happy Halloween!
On Google+ and the list I asked:
I honestly love Halloween, because it’s the one day of the year that you can:
- look completely crazy and nobody will care (but then again, I look crazy all the time…)
- be someone or something else; reinvent yourself for a day
(I feel vulnerable sharing about my love of Halloween. I’ve never missed a year of dressing up since I was 5, except for when I was in Shanghai for my sister’s wedding.)
What am I this Halloween, you ask?
Well first, you’ll have to click play:

I am…

…myself for Halloween!
A fierce love warrior, a strong human being, and a symbol of empowerment.
A cynosure. :)

Speaking of which, I’d like to invite you to connect with me and other readers on Google+.
I’m really appreciating Google+ because to me, it combines the best of Facebook (streamlined conversations in threads, easy and interactive sharing) and Twitter (a living, constantly changing place for lush and alive dialogue). The conversations I’ve engaged in so far on G+ have been belief-prodding and mind-stimulating.
If you’re wondering where to start, I’ve been ruminating on this article/discussion and I’d love if you’d join me.
(For the record, I’m still engaging on Twitter, but mostly not with what actually comes up on my stream. The easiest way for me to get to know you is if you just say hello by mentioning me and letting me know how you’re doing.)
