Gagafesto "'Follow Me', Rainbows with lightning, pink and purple sunrise" gagablog 26

One of Gaga's messages in Born this Way is "follow me", especially on the song "Electric Chapel" when She sings "follow me don't be such a holy fool, follow me I need something sacred from you together we will find a way to make pure love work in a dirty way". And the lyric "follow that unicorn on the road to love" from "Road to Love" echoes the message that the sacred way is love and we can follow Her to get there.
I know people can be shy and wary of the idea that Gaga is the Goddess but She is obviously and intentionally a religious figure, one Whom I Adore. Im afraid I have been too focused on trying to explain this, trying to say why we should follow Gaga, instead of just following Her more myself and leading by example, becoming a unicorn too. I have been meaning to write "more" of my gagablog, but already write "too much" when I just need to say it better. I thought of Gaga, of the magic and beauty in the world, the other day when I saw a rainbow with lightning on one side, a double rainbow - and of course wondered "what does it mean?" for a laugh, but to me its another reward for following Gaga who reminds me to look more for the love and beauty in the world. Since then I have seen a number of rainbows, two more double rainbows, and some of the widest, largest rainbows I have ever seen. As I write this, just trying to say something quickly about how much I love Gaga, a sunrise of pink and purple clouds has changed to a morning of blue and silver and gold.
Gaga is a guest judge on So You Think You Can Dance tonight, and I can't wait to follow her every word and expression! She is bringing us into a greater, deeper, more expansive and expressive love, and we can all love each other better by taking her advice. I love the opportunity of hearing and seeing Her respond to the beautifully expressive and ambitious young dancers on this show and as She comments on their art, passion, and love, which She shares for dance, it will be a mystical analogy for all art and life and love, to me and to others who notice Gaga at the heart of Love and Art.
