CURRENT MISSION

I love to travel, and I love people. When the two combine, I'm in heaven.

ABOUT ME

I have had great success being a total idiot.

"As far as we can discern, the sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light in the darkness of mere being." -C.G Jung

PHILOSOPHY

"For believe me: the secret for harvesting from existence the greatest fruitfulness and greatest enjoyment is - to live dangerously." -Friedrich Nietzsche

Music, Movies, and Books

Currently I am listening to Neutral Milk Hotel, I just watched Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and I'm reading "The Undiscovered Self" by C.G Jung. If that answers your question.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Everything that I have done in my life has been moving in it's own way. It's all built up to this exact moment.

Teach, Learn, Share

Who are you?

What are you doing..?

Why are you wearing those clothes?

What are those books doing on your shelf?

Who are these names in your telephone?

What does any of this mean to you?

Space and time are an illusion.
None of this can be explained through reason alone.

It is a tremendous mystery.

Why are you looking for a solution?

There are NO solutions
because there are NO problems.

Nothing you see is going to last forever
and so it has no absolute and lasting reality of any kind.

What are you reaching for?
What are you clinging to?

There's NOTHING there.

You OWN NOTHING.
You will NEVER own anyth..ing.

We must learn to

HAVE WITHOUT POSSESSING.

We must learn to

EXPRESS

rather than

POSSESS

ourselves.

What you give -- EVERYTHING that you give --

you give to yourself.

What you DO NOT give,

you are TAKING from yourself.

We search for the meaning of life, yes,

but life HAS no meaning.

Life is life.

That is all.

Do not let it disturb you.

It is like a blank canvas,

and you can put what you like on it.

No problem.

GIVE your life a meaning.

GIVE your suffering a meaning

(All the things we pray to God for

we should give ourselves first..).

Find the beauty in things,

and you're finding beauty in yourself.

Here is what I think:

NOTHING is quite as beautiful

as the APPRECIATION OF BEAUTY.

Without it, there is no beauty in the world.

YOU give the world beauty.

When you see with the eyes of love

and recognize fear as an illusion of the senses

nothing is ugly anymore.

Be very present in the realization

that everything you've ever experienced

everyone you've ever known..

was you.

The only thing you have ever experienced

is yourself experiencing the world.

There is nothing you have ever known,

or seen, or felt, or heard, or touched,

no one you have ever spoken with,

made love to,

no experience you have had

that didn't take place between your ears.

For all you know,.

you are a brain in a jar on someone's desk.

This is the reality of your experience here.

The wise man knows..

that he knows nothing.

Those who know

are those who say

it's all been said before.

This isn't complicated,

just put one foot in front of the other.

Nothing good will ever happen to you.

Nothing bad will happen either.

You are more than Being, you are Becoming.

Tomorrow you will wake up as someone else.

Shed yesterday's illusion like a reptile changes skin.

Immaculate.

You are already illuminated.

Everything is permitted.

Make peace with today

and

say goodbye to each moment

like a friend

who you won't recognize

the next time that you meet.

I just want to share good conversation. We'll go from there.
