/Insert epic title here./

By Jove, it's good to be back on the slackline. Today was first day in about a month cause I've been sick. It's good to have a part of me back.

what a good life this is, seriously tho guys.

Live life, do something rad.

pour yourself a tall glass of stardust, sit here and drink that. now breathe and open your eyes.

oh hey, and be straight up with people. do me a favor, tell the people you love that you love them.

most of all, just be you. be real.

and here's a song I really like #ThanksKyleQ



yeah. so you take from that what you want. but I hope you at least enjoyed the music. cause I did. And have an amazing day.

Ps I love you. I love you and you and every other human on this planet. Everything in this universe. Cause you make this reality true and that makes it amazing. Your consciousness enriches this universe and for that, I thank you. For we are siblings in this human family. I love you.

So apparently this blog is dead.

I mean. you could say this blog's dead.

but I'ma attempt to bring it back to life.

schools startin up again.

we live in a beautiful place. a place called the universe.

I'm tryin to find the golden mean between contentment with the beauty of the moment and the craving for the infinite.

Is that even possible?

people are cool. seriously epic.

I feel like an old man. Junior or something. I could easily graduate next semester. I should be wise or something.

I don't dig this sitting in front of computer screens all day. Gotta get up and do something flippin awesome. Rise.

I read astronomy in my spare time, cause it's mind bending.

like think of this. we. we puny humans. we got together and put somebody on the flippin moon. so rad. just look at that footprint. we're frickin awesome. me, you- all part of the human family.

and ya know, a quote to go along with that simple idea: “Not only do we live among the stars, the stars live within us.” 

and uh. while I'm still trippin... here's another one.

now this ones boring and like more of the kinda thing you'd see in a boring astronomy class... but... if you think about it while you watch it...

it's pretty trippy.
















anyhow. the world is pretty great. like. the grass and trees and air and rocks and sun and stuff. take a minute and breathe.

just go do something flippin awesome.

Maybe Heaven Right Now is Just a Devil or Angel Away.

Freewriting.

Slackline.

here's the free writing:

I drank a sunset. It burned my tongue, but gave me the motivation to free climb an overhanging boulder, up 35 feet. I stood on top. Looked into the infinite ocean and dove in. Broke two bones. It hurt like hell but there was a dolphin that taught me to grow gills and told me all was well. I rented a guitar and sat on the ocean floor. It was effortless meditation. I learned of permanence and lack of attachment. I dreamed. And dreamed. I dreamed millennia of dream in a single moment. And, in the space between the moments- I became anew. I felt fish swim through my fingertips. And the pulsating energy of life and reality flowed through my every pore into my heart. A jewish man telepathically asked me for the address of a kangaroo. I opened my eyes and realized all of reality was made of tiny particles, all the same. I saw paradox.

Alright. But. In all seriousness. I think I might be addicted to slacklining.

I have a LOT of school to catch up on.

I will conquer.


But seriously people. Take a moment- and reflect on this beautiful reality we are and are in.

Serve, Become, and Conquer.

If you don't change anything, the end results won't change either.

Life is a gift, don't waste it.

Lemon Drops.

Alright. I like to live.

I find life to be the greatest experience any of us will ever have.

I believe in making each day great, making each day an adventure, and living NOW.

The moment is eternal.

Now, Go read some Emerson- don't read the following section of me whining. 

Oh, and drink some water. 

And tell me to stop @$(%(@#%&*) telling you what to do. Seriously. . 

Here's the problem- 

School. School. School. 

That bullcrap used to be straightforward as heck and I liked it that way. It was difficult, but never extremely time consuming because there was ZERO busywork. We were given materials to study and master, went to classes to discuss their key ideas and the epiphanies we'd gained- in addition to amazing connections from our mentors, and then we finally had simple assignments based off of all that studying. 

It worked. 

It worked well. 

Then, somebody decided that we needed more busywork- because it hurts for everyone when we're all cramming last minute. 

Somehow, somewhere, someone thought "if we assign craploads of busywork every week, nobody will be able to get behind." 

huh? 

So, we brought back the weekly study guides, the time-based assignments, and weekly "reports." 

And what, my friends has this done? 

It has allowed me to legitimately hate all but one of my classes! 

Sure, I've been slacking off. 

But, here's the problem with assigning mountains of busywork- it's a waste! IT STEALS OUR TIME! IT TEARS THE LIFE FROM THE STUDIES AND DRIES IT UP AND FORCES US TO BREATH IT ALL DAY LONG! I can only take so much before I puke from the Lack of Life. We are not robots, we are humans, and we need life- not merely the dry corpse of reality, the mere facts repeated again and again like some sort of Factory Cacophony. END THAT CRAP, it will suck the life from us and bring us closer to death than any physical action we could do. END THE SHIZ. END THE SICKNESS. END THE BUSYWORK. 

that sounds like some kind of demented homeschool poetry, it's not. It's truth. That stuff is choking me. 

Please don't read all that- I'm wimping out. I guess we just gotta buckle down.

Or whatever.

I'm saddened by facets of our modern internet. How it has become a stupid place where all we do is share hilarious clips and flout our own stupidity. We use the internet as a mirror, rather than as a pool of endless knowledge. What are we doing? Heck, even I now sound like the Amish Grandpa declaring the modern world a waste of humanity... Please Advise.

Whatever. Here: something I do know/legitimately believe.

Go. Have an adventure, live life to the fullest. Live each day as if it were your last. Make today memorable- if not, I promise you it will slide into oblivion. Fear not, for acting because of fear will make cowards of us all- a worse death than anything I can dream of. What are you waiting for to live your dream? Just do it. Someday is today. 

"This could be the day that I die."

Do something awesome.

Live a life worth living.

Be You. Be Awesome. Be Great.

Pandas

Pandas. Pandas are great.

I'm going climbing.

here's a link that blew my mind:

and here's a good song:

Life's a gift. Don't waste it.

People are awesome, if you forget it, life will stink until you open your eyes.

Reality is beautiful.
