This Morning, I was sitting on the train meditating and got a flash of inspiration to write some ideas down in my journal - which I now would like to share with you. My ideas are related to the subject of desire - the seed of creation.
As long as we desire things of quality and work toward their actuality, we are alive, inspired, and motivated in our life experience. To desire is to express the ether of life. We must remain motivated or we will lose our vigor. For this reason we set goals; have dreams; develop intention with our efforts.
There is nothing more disconcerting than seeing someone lose that vigor. That swag. That enthusiasm in life. We see this with our families all the time. Our parents (or any other love ones) who may just give up hope and aspirations, as they feel the urge to conform… Settle for the life they feel is “realistic.” But is it truly what they feel? Or is it what is impressed upon them by educational institutions, media, and social norms? Perhaps! I believe reality is what you make it. Someone else’s idea of “normal” or “success” shouldn’t be your own, unless you truly value that same understanding. What do you want? What do you desire?
We must not run out of desires. If you deliberately plan to be less than your vast number of possibilities, then you are sabotaging your own potentiality. This is what may inhibit one from success. Its inevitable. To quote Earl Nightingale: “Your success (or rewards) in life are in exact proportion to your service.” And that sums it up. Your success already exists, it just waits for you to accept it as your own and walk toward it. By doing the opposite, you are rejecting it, and keeping your self further away from your true desires.
I suggest we use our imagination more often. Imagination inspires creativity, creativity is transmuted into effort, and effort results in creation!
Lets create! Lets continue to inspire each other to create. Create until we do not have a single breath left. Making use of our life experience by becoming living examples of our desires by expressing our true potential.
During World War II Russia suffered by far the greatest number of casualties of any country on either side, losing approximately 24 million people (military and civilians.) Ironic enough, today, Russia has now inherited the same hateful disease that has plagued most Europe during that period - Neo-Nazism.
The collapse of the Soviet economic system in the early 1990s caused great economic and social turmoil, including widespread unemployment and poverty. With their opposition toward immigration as their main platform, several government officials and members of the Parliament created propaganda to tap into popular discontent, particularly among the marginalized, lesser educated, and habitually unemployed youth. What is so troublesome about this, is that the ideals held here are not to far off from some of the messages spewed by extreme right-wing Republicans in our own country.
This documentary produced by Current TV’s Vanguard Journalism, explores the violent epidemic of Neo-Nazism in Russia, their underground recruiting , political support and how they use the internet to spread their hate. I find this short piece insightful and sharp. Let me know your thoughts.
It is not my intent to shed light on this to perpetuate a germ of negative thought or energy, rather to build awareness of topics like this one. As many people sincerely believe that the disease of racism is extinct, nothing could be more false! I’ve seen many arguments made by people in our nation (including public officials and politicians) that are not to far from heading in this direction; they are only off by a degree. We must be careful. I post this video as a reminder/warning that if we do not tweak our negative thoughts and hate… we are no better than people expressing the low vibration and intolerance in this piece. Peace!
True power like energy can’t be destroyed. Find power in what is infinitely yours, love, Breath, thought, knowledge, wisdom, understanding, self. With the understanding that we be truly fortified, driven and made confident by that which can not be taken away.

Mr Olbermann I am a fan, and I must thank you for these words, I couldn’t have said it better myself, I’m happy someone did. Its 2010 you would think by now there would be more people speaking their truth via mass media, yet this its not the case, this is a minority among what’s out there. With the growth of social networking , we now have our own publically controlled media outlets, lets use them, to make a difference, to inspire, teach, uplift & educate. It’s time We Live To Change Something on a daily basis.
With this being my first post for the year 2010, I’d like to extend a Happy New Year to all of our family, friends and supporters. We are blessed to have been going strong for 5 years and we have you all to thank for that. Your support is greatly appreciated.
2010 is about setting our frequencies higher… as we get closer to 2012. The rest of the world believes the world is coming to the end. I subscribe to the idea that the AM channel will be shut off. So anyone is still tuning in to AM channel, it will seem as if their world has come to an end (metaphorically speaking!) Its time for us to step our game up as the most intelligent species of the planet earth and endeavor to be more progressive and prosperous. I explain my thoughts on this topic a bit deeper in my video-blog below.
You’re questions and comments are welcomed. Peace.
change is constant, energy is infinite, our consciousness is always expanding as we live and grow, at different rates, frequencies and vibrations for different people. Whats the beginning for some is the end for others, meaning our experience and what we learn is relative to what we individually need.
there will be no finite “end,” because we/the universe, are energy & energy has no end, what can end is our perspective, with new info or experience we often change our point of view, which in turn may cause a change in the way we live our lives.
I find that it benefits me to share the things that i have learned that helped to benefit positive change in my life, to influence positive change in the world around me, one step at a time, each and every day, we live and change, & “live to change something”.
observe self, and find the things that may impede your personal expansion, seek solutions, and make them part of your daily experience. we must become the change we wish to see , the time is now. Peace
I had the opportunity to see the Lee Daniels Film “Precious” a few weeks ago when it was pre-released in New York. As a Film Maker , Educator and someone who has spent years working with young people, I really appreciated this movie…though it haunted me for days afterwards, it was a window to an aspect of society that goes overlooked and ignored too often. As a Film Maker and social activist who considers myself media literate, I am extremely critical of the sociological tone, affect, archetypes and stereotypes that are perpetuated in films.. Due to this, I entered the theater with a critical eye, Bracing myself for a disappointment, often I am offended and let down by the way social issues in the “black” community are depicted by the film industry. Its too common that our representation is exaggerated, or insensitive or just irresponsibly portrayed . I’m relieved to say that I feel “Precious” was a very well done and tasteful film, I enjoyed it (for lack of a better word considering the subject matter) I found that it skillfully and creatively tackled deeply disturbing scenarios in a way that did justice to such sensitive matters, and that it was done in a way that didn’t exploit make a spectacle of or lose sight of the inhumane and tragic nature of what was being depicted. On top of that it was very artistic, beautifully shot and edited and the actors performances were amazingly real and believable (I have to give a shout out to my people Xosha, Angelique & Chyna I’m very proud of yall).
Cast of "Precious" (shout out to Xosha, Angeligue & Chyna I'm very proud of yall).
I Feel the negative reviews this film is receiving are rooted in some people need to save “face” and are attempts to ignore The Shame that both black and white Americans experience when faced with the shameful history of injustice in this country and for unsavory residual aspects of our society that are continuing at this moment. They’re offended by the airing of “dirty laundry”. The harsh reality that America has a long history of physical, psychological and sexual abuse perpetuated against and within the black community since the days of slavery. ”Precious” embodies aspects of an american reality, that have too long been overlooked. Its important that stories like ”Precious” are told and are told well, until we start discussing these things they will go on unnoticed or ignored..
