New Beginning and the end.



Every new beginning starts with an end.

And that is where it stands. I am beginning a new blog that will go more along the lines of what I do and it definitely will be as entertaining and insightful as this one has been. I’ve always loved this blog but now it is time to end it and start a new beginning. As a personal trainer and a person who is about wellness I want to begin a blog that will embody that as well as spiritual growth just as this one has. So when that blog begins I will post the address to it on this one so that all who want to transfer over can do so with ease. I am excited about this change, it is bigger than it may seem but I am a person who thinks with a positive and loving mind state and I also think in a manner of success. So this will be the last of my Namaste blog and as it ends the whole purpose and point of this blog WILL live on in my spiritually fit blog. An enhancement and a growth has occurred within me and with that change has as well. I am going for my dreams in more full force than I ever have and I hope all that reads this does the same. You are doing yourself and this planet a disservice if you don’t so take the chance and get it done. God be with you, love is the way and just as I have always said, WE ALL ARE ONE!

See the bigger picture


“An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity.”
Martin Luther King, Jr.

There was a forum going on about the recent gun violence which seems to plague our cities and suburbs in this country and this forum spoke about the new gun law that our president is trying to pass. I made a statement within that forum and within that statement I expressed that I felt the president had the right mind state and even though this new law isn’t going to solve all of these gun issues it is a change for the better and he is heading in the right direction with the idea. What I got after I posted my comment surprised me. People made comments like “he shouldn’t do that; he can’t take my guns from me” “why would he make it harder to buy guns, the people who are doing the killing aren’t getting the guns legal so why doesn’t he leave us alone”. I mean you can see what people were thinking about. They felt as if the president was somehow picking on them, that he wanted to take their guns away just for the sake of it and that he was delusional because he was trying to pass the new law. It’s crazy how people can’t seem to see pass themselves even when this country is going down a dark path in a lot (not all aspects but a lot because I do believe people are changing and becoming more loving in other aspects but that doesn’t excuse this) of aspects. They can’t see pass there wants for one moment and consider why he is passing this law. I have no issue with people having guns and nor does the president. I think people should be able to own guns if they want, some people just love the things, they have a true passion for guns and I don’t see anything wrong with this. But it’s when people go around hurting others with these weapons that the problem occurs. If one has a gun and that person has it in a legal manner no one is going to take it away. This is something that these people on this forum couldn’t seem to see. They simply began speaking in mean and nasty ways to me because I guess they felt that when I made the comment I was attacking them too. Well the fact of the matter is I don’t even know them so why would I do that? Why can’t some people see the bigger picture in the whole scheme of things and get pass their egos? Kids died, this is the part I can’t get pass and I would gladly be inconvenienced in any way if it meant that our youth would be a small bit safer than they are. This is the case because I can see pass me, I know that my ego is not all that exist, that I am part of something bigger and that I am that which is bigger. I know that the Love which lives in me lives in us all and that we are One. It’s not just about me it’s about the whole and I think Martin Luther King was thinking in this manner when he wrote the quote that is above my blog for tonight. If a single cell in our body only saw only itself and nothing else then it wouldn’t be able to function as it should. It would more than likely become cancerous and kill the whole body. But it does what it does because it knows that it is MORE than just a single cell. It is the BODY and it does what it needs to do to keep the body healthy, not just itself. If this means the cell needs to work harder or be inconvenienced for the sake of the body then it doesn’t mind that at all. And with that it seems that a single cell is more in tune with the vibe of reality than us humans with all of our complexities and our humongous brain. We have the power to be more conscious and more in tune with God and this universe than any other living thing on this planet but we somehow seem to miss the beat with that. We are that which is the BODY IN WHOLE and we have got to protect our children first and then protect the rest and all of us for that matter. We need to do this now because if we don’t our species is doomed. If when the president tries to pass a law which will simply make it harder for people with the intent to hurt others get guns, even if this law will make it harder for us all to get guns we really need to ask ourselves why we would have an issue with this. Something wrong as seriously gone a miss; we need to straighten up with this or we all are going to DIE and kill off our very world just as cancer does, we are going to be cancers to this world of ours of we can’t seem to see pass ourselves and look at the bigger picture. Love always, know that you are more than just your egos and always, always look at the bigger picture because within that bigger picture is the true YOU.

We made it! 2013!


We made it! It’s 2013 and if you are able to read this post you made it too. They said the world would end but we’re still here, and even so do we really know how much time we have left on this earth? Let’s make this year the year of the alchemist for us all. An alchemist is an individual that can turn lead or any base mental into gold so to be an alchemist in life is to be an individual that can turn something that may be happening in life that seems harsh or worthless into something of great worth and there is no more time to lose. So with this first post of many within this year I am making a plea to everyone who reads it. Make this year a year of joy no matter what it may bring. Even if the harshest of situations occur within this year learn how to turn them into something of worth and keep on moving. Simply know that everything that is to happen within this year is something that is for the purpose of joy regardless of what it is and simply look at it in that manner. The Solstice of 2012 didn’t cause the end of the world but it did cause the end of an era. We are now in a new age of things and on this side of things happiness is the way and the only way and to gain it is through love and love alone. It is up to you to decipher what that means but it isn’t that hard so within this year let’s start now and let’s turn some lead into gold. Be love!

Namaste

Don't feed the geese



There is a reservoir near my home and on the gate that gates this man made body of water away from the rest of us there is a sign. This sign reads as follows, “do not feed the geese” then it goes on to explain the reason why. It says that in feeding the geese our drinking water will be affect in mutable ways but you know what? I bet you people still do feed the geese, I’ve seen them do it. This is something that humans are good at doing, making decision that causes us hardships but yet when the hardship hits home they blame it on others. I see people every day dropping trash on the ground like the ground is a big trashcan acting like this act won’t affect them personality. They don’t see the bigger picture and as the humans who aren’t as conscious, they feel that when hardships come their way its ether someone else’s fault or just the way it is. Some people think that they couldn’t help it because they are overweight and having multiple health issues. They think that it’s just like that because that’s the way it is. Humans gain all of these different cancers and diseases and they think it’s just circumstance and on top of that they want everyone to feel bad for them because they feel they are being made to go through there hardships. Bills pile up, companies threaten to shut off services, things get back up and it is just a stoke of bad luck. Our economy goes down the gutter and it’s the fault of the politicians in office. We lose our homes and it’s the fault of the people who are taking them from us, our jobs aren’t paying us enough money and it’s the people who we work for faults, they should just give us more money or else. Or we find ourselves in relationships that seem to do more harm than good and it’s the faults of the people who we are in the relationships with, if only they would do right, if only they would do better then everything would turn out as it should but for some reason they simply don’t so now we have to suffer. The blame game is played so much that it becomes the norm and as this occurs our lives go deeper and deeper into that harsh, dark place and then it get so harsh and dark that it gets nearly impossible to see the light of day anymore.

“So I fed the geese so what” he says as he hears on the news then because stuff was thrown in the reservoir it’s been jammed and now we aren’t able to get drinking water. “They should do better, those people who are in charge of making the running water work” he continues and not ones did he even look at a part that he may have played in the whole mess. Never take yourselves out of the equation because there is always a reason why something in YOUR life is happening whether good or bad and even if you weren’t conscious enough to realize this, you did play a part in it and I don’t care what it was. I am by no means saying that everything that happens bad to everyone is happening because that person brought it on themselves. I would never do that because in doing that I would have to say that kids who get sexually abused or children who get cancer and suffer are to blame. But even in the harshest of situations, even if we weren’t conscious of our part in situations unfolding for us, we still need to realize that we did play a part in it happening. We truly may not deserve some of the harsh things we go through but to throw the events in the wind is to allow the wind to control it and that is like claiming a victim mentality. Once that occurs all bets are off. We may not have control over what happens to us but we can control the outcome, we can turn so called bad situations into opportunities for growth, we can turn them into strengthening lessons but in order to do this we need to claim some type of responsibility for the action. Don’t blame yourselves for harsh situations but say to yourselves that you will gain strength and learn from these events so that these things won’t happen to you or anyone that you love and that is willing to hear you out when you attempt to enlighten them. So if it is to be, and we want to live a life within that happy place that we were meant to live in we need to claim our lives to ourselves, own what we go and are going through with pride, not blame and place it in a place of positivity and growth. If we mindlessly continue to do things that hurt us and our planet we won’t have a planet to live on or even a life to experience and that is all to it. We are all One. This planet and everyone on it is a part of us, this is our home, this universe in itself is our home and we should take care of it just as it is. Our economic situations is our doing, not the man sitting in office and if we are to change it we need to first look at ourselves and see what can be done with the decisions we make, and then we need to back up those people in office with efforts to help gain freedom from the situations. We need to come together and take care, we need to be more conscious, know that it doesn’t take much to recycle but recycling does so much for the planet. It’s not the same as throwing the recyclable on the ground or in the trash, not at all. Stop playing the victim in life, STOP FEELING THE GEESE AND TAKE CONTROL!

The Next Chapter


It’s been a crazy ride for me and at times I’ve felt as if I’ve come off track of what I am about within my life thus far. But if that is the case then I am as if now making a return trip or better yet I’m not returning but I’m moving forward. It’s been a while since I’ve written on this blog and within that time that I wasn’t present in blog posting I’ve experienced fears and woes, I’ve been through hurts and hardships and also I’ve made blatant decisions on what this life will be for me from here on out and there is no turning back from this point. Now as I write this post I feel that I am now taking a step and I am moving forward to the next chapter of my life. God still lives within me and He shines like never before. My purpose is still happiness and that is achieved by love. It would be a just thing for us all to not allow the fear that we create to be a hindrance to us in any shape, size or form that would be a great gift that we all could give to ourselves and a gift that I am giving to myself right now. Inspiration lives all around us, it lives in books and in life events, in other people and in nature, in science, in philosophy and in religion, it lives in all and everything and I tend to come back to this blog expressing all that inspiration may dictate to me. To simply be aware of all the inspiration that I am surrounded by and to express it in the only way that my level of consciousness will allow me then in doing that to also gain something which I myself will be able to us as a strengthening tool within and for my own life. So here we are; this is the next chapter of the way things will pan out for me and this time I’m really not going to hold back. I’ve taken a long enough break from my writings on here to gather myself and to ask all of the questions of me and life but I question myself or this life no longer and neither should you. The purpose of life is happiness. For God to express all of Her perfections and joys through you, to be an all-out expression of that happiness that we were all meant to have and I mean all of us and all of  the time too. Right and wrong don’t exist; up and down are only here from perception and that is a truth the most have a hard time accepting but once it is accepted and we can let go of all of our judgmental ways and dogmas even though it may seem scary at first, we will gain a freedom that we never thought possible and it will be a joyous time for us all. All we really need to realize is that there is only Love and also fear and fear is what keeps us down and fear in itself doesn’t even exist really. So as I growth within my writings on this blog I will grow within this life and I hope that whoever reads what I write is heading in that direction as well. Only love exists and it is due to all of us because all and all, we are love. The next chapter begins now. The past and the future are not the main concern, only the now and to remain it that now space as we make our decisions from here on out.

Love is the beauty of the soul


"Love is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake and then subsides. And when it subsides you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is? Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion. That is just being "in love" which any of us can convince ourselves we are.

Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. Love is having roots that grow towards each other underground, and when all the pretty blossom have fallen from our branches we find that we are one tree and not two.

"Love is the beauty of the soul." --St. Augustine

That everlasting bliss that seems to connect and make us one, in a relationship as it unfolds and as the newness arrives, all of that passion and bliss, all of that not getting to be around each other enough and simply wanting to be around each other all of the time, to be with each other, to be within each other and touching each other none stop. When she is seen it’s like just wanting to take her at that moment, wanting to do all and everything to her and never wanting to stop. Wanting to just have her as one would a delectable meal which is there for the devouring. All of these feelings, they seem as if it’s the reason you breath, it’s the reason you do anything; so that you may have her forever and ever, it’s like a high that can’t truly be explained. But then as the clouds of your lust begin to subside something else occurs that you just may not have been expecting.

She is still who she is but something has changed, that touch, it’s something that I’ve had so many times already. It’s starting to feel like a meal that I simply am getting sick of because I eat it every damn day. Her voice, that sound which at one time was like a heavenly instrument is starting to sound like a song that I’ve heard on the radio one time too many. It still sounds nice but it just isn’t the same as it was when I first heard it. Her touch, her smell, her presence, these aren’t things that I lust for as I once did because I am accustom to them. It is feeling like a car that was once new but now is just a car; that new car smell has vanished along with that new feeling of it all. It’s simply just the same old thing that I am use to and I have seen every day. Is the lust gone and is it done? Am I ready to move on to something new so that I may gain that feeling back that I once had? That feeling that felt as if I could never get enough? Is this it or am I on the road to something that I in fact have never felt or witnessed before?

But now something new has been revealed. It’s like a new beauty has been released and with this, it is something more permanent then what I witnessed before bare nude for me to bask in; this new light with its warmth and comfort for me to bask in is the shine which emanates from her soul. This is something that is even more euphoric then the passion, more breathtaking then the beauty and more intimate then that new touch. This is what it is about, the beauty of the soul and once this buried treasure is discovered a newness that can never be run down is born and a new passion has manifests itself to my light and my life. The beauty of the soul is what it is about and until it’s discovered no matter how much passion there was I will never know what this thing call love with another truly is. Don’t give up or give in simply because it’s feeling and gets familiar, now is your time and now is your chance. Open up your eyes so that you may see that beauty of the soul and once it is discovered that temporary passion that you felt in the beginning will seem like a distant child’s play thing and you won’t ever want to go back. Live, love and allow the beauty of the soul to show you what you thought might have been something that is no more. The beauty of the soul is there and now it is time to gaze, look upon it and discover the real and true treasure of this thing called love within your love and within this shining light which you have discovered so that it may stay and strengthen that joyous part of your life.
