very few have the courage to question, to step outside of them selves and see through the perspective of the “other” until the celebrated oppression and imperialism of these “super powers” discontinue i will always question who they suggest is my enemy. Geronimo was a “terrorist” the black panther party, Garvey, and countless others would be labeled as “terrorists” .I may not always agree with the way, often i can empathize with the cause or the need. an open mind supports an open heart and cultivates a just spirit.

Our knowledge of self based on the physical experience in many ways is an illusion. to have greater understanding we must come to know I AM. I Am is the constant that is us, it is who we are minus our life experience, the essence of that which we call self. When we have a strong understanding of I AM, we come to know others w/ similar clarity, we enable the ability to see I AM in them. We see others as we see our self, positive or negative. We behold all as we know our self. I AM in me sees I AM in you.

Until we embrace & honor the divine with in, focus on the divine without, is a mysterious distraction. We first prepare self before leaving the house, the same principal applies to pursuit of higher knowledge. To cultivate a healthy knowledge of self, we must embrace honest, humble, objective, observation & respect of self. When we begin to know self our understanding of all begins to expand. as within so without, as above so below.

Peace. Paz. Salaam. We greet the entire world with peace as instructed. I hope these words find you in a good place…
The following post was inspired by a collaboration of several things: including career transitioning, bottled thoughts, life post “it” and reading a random, but not so random blog post. Oh yeah, and the fact that BEYOND me, the people around me are changing (as expected). What isn’t so expected, is the fact that they have let their recent “successes” fog their minds, bodies and souls – and I mean, straight “Chucky”, “Child’s Play” style.

ode to the winners: when you live to win.. it angers those who have surrendered behind desks, who have agreed to wake up unfulfilled, tired and spend a minimum of 8 hours doing what tired them out the day before, who live in contempt of self and fear of living their dreams.. let their words of discouragement and unhappiness be a reminder of the burdens you will not carry, our loyalty to freedom feels like a smack in the face to all who have betrayed their hearts and dreams.. honor your life, from today forward become dedicated to all that you love, play to win, losing is a bad habit.. winning is the best habit.

Our ways & actions plant seeds, be mindful all action brings reaction, be it positive or negative, often of greater magnitude. Just like a small seed becomes a much bigger plant or even a great sequoia, our ways/words/thought do the same. Small things become big things. These seeds grow to become our life experience, our wisdom our personal Truth. Truth is perspective & experience, It varies with each individual. Embrace truth thats shared by alike minds, the realization that we can find commonality in our individual experience holds power. Our great leap in humanity is actualized the moment we realize that I AM is US. We are all connected at the highest level of our being

Love life, living, nature and its mood swings… beautiful summer sunny days, winter snow. Inhaling, exhaling, birth and death.. life is balance, contrast, harmony. We cant love one aspect and hate another, and maintain a healthy relationship with being.. its impossible. somethings are easy to embrace and understand, seek to find the best part in that which you do not… it will help us to enjoy this experience.

Societies relationship with power guides us to look outside of self, to believe that power is something distant and unatainable to those without fame, pedigree or wealth, deeming us powerless. True power is limitless and accessible to all. Look with in, connect with I AM and the ALL, focus on our source, become aquatinted with LOVE, allow it to fill you and be powerful.
