A Man is the Limit of Nothing...The Measure of all Things
How complex are the chains that bind, refine and define my sense of self and by extension you?
What expectations do I accept as acceptable and therefore satisfying when I meet your limited expectation of me. Limits allow us to know ourselves and others to know us.
To find the undefinable 'manhood' is to dare the fools search. There is no manhood, there is only men, being in every way possible, imaginable and digestible. Noting this, I truly have little worth, even less self-worth, until I behave without reward, without approval and with pain and silence .
The art of man is the art of being nothing and everything without self (pre)judgement.
If I don't know me, then I can finally be, more than me.

#34 - Sparks of Inspiration...
"Be a spark, that is the destiny of the individual.
The flame is the destiny of the community."

One individual has never changed the world.
One individual has however inspired many to change and therefore the world.
So everyday your spark needs to show its genuine self, ready to both ignite and join the flame of change.

#33 - In This Moment...
In this moment, a silence of aspiration embraces me.
What is expected of me, stands before me, watching and waiting and anticipating my movement.
What was said and done before wait for me to say and do again.
And yet I do not move.
I stay silent and still while expectation of action, creativity and thought encircle me.
In this moment, I will not do or make.
I will only remain awake and aware.

Gabbing on:
Only your individual perception gives life and death their own unique meaning.
Beyond this, they are just aspects of how the Universe eternally and randomly evolves. So relax and make it what you choose it to be, you're in it eternally anyway.
Daily you are part of the process of life and death, so why not explore it in your own way. Whether by fear, joy, flamboyance or isolation - just try it your way. Just do it.
An Example.

Relax, you're going to get really good at a lot of things.
People are going to rely on you and think you are amazing and valuable.
Many people will want to be your lover and you will love some of them that you choose to.
Pay attention to the few people that really like you now, they matter most, not the people you want to like you.
You look beautiful.
You are funny.
You're not like everyone else, that's fantastic! Don't change a thing or stress, people are going to go crazy for you just because of this fact.
Be nice, fair and kind to everyone you meet now, you can't begin to imagine what this will doand mean to your life in a few years.
Please don't follow anyone, they are not as cool as they appear or people think they are.
The pain you are feeling now will make you special and amazing later if you don't let it overwhelm you. Seriously.
Go and do the stuff that amazes you now because you won't have time to come back and do it later because so many other amazing people and stuff are going to need your attention.
Think slowly.
Ignore the word "quickly" and do not apply it to anything you do in your life. If you don't do this it will make whatever you are doing be 'less' than it is.
Be friends with the few people that like you, that's all you will ever need or have at any given point in your life.
Take care of your body.
Be crazy but make sure you can survive it without hurting yourself or someone else.
Try not to do anything that will disrespect who you are and your family.
You're ok. Keep doing what you like to do.
If you think you haven't impressed someone as yet, trust me you will.
Soon someone is going to be willing to do anything for you to love them, don't take this moment for granted.
You're going to love who you are now, a lot better later.

#29 - With or Without You...
"Who I am is an invitation for you to be who you are.
My mind is an invitation to your intelligence
My body is an inspiration to your imagination
My spirit an interpretation of your divine."

With or without you I will be. There is no mystery or choice in this.
I love that you offer some light to my mystery as I seek illumination.
I love that you respond to the unique rhythms of my every movement as I dance in this life.
I love that you radiate a security to my many insecure imaginings.
With or without you I will be. There is no mystery or choice in this.
But I love being aware of you, with or without you here.

#28 - Failure
"When you are open to all possibilities there is no such thing as failure."
~ Tuesday, February 28, 2006
Gabbing on:
Failure is only an outcome that we did not want or expect or anticipate. Expectations that we have established for ourselves, that are unmet, we generally label as 'failure'.
How can we judge a moment or our life as 'failure' based upon the fact that one occurrence out of an infinite number of occurrences did or did not happen the 'right way'?
How can we judge the beach by one single grain of sand?
How can we judge an ocean by one droplet of water?
How can there be failure in our life when one moment transpires in a manner that we did or did not want or expect or anticipate?
We must be of greater vision.
We must let all things come to us and pass through us - unjudged by the term 'failure' or 'success'.
However, if we must judge a moment as success or failure, let us be conscious in accepting our 'failures' and 'unanticipated moments' equally as our 'successes' because within them are hidden the seeds of all of our possibilities and potentialities.
"Failure is just the term of judgment that we attached to moments we perceive as having not met our plans, that we wish to throw away."
Be of greater patience, 'failure' like the coal, in time will prove itself to be a diamond of great value.

#27 - Knowing Me, Knowing You...

Gabbing on:
Know within before you speak out.
Be aware within before you share what you know with others.
The first stage of every experience starts within the heart.
The second (2nd) stage takes place within the mind.
The third (3rd) stage within the ego/personality.
The final stage is the physical experience, the manifestation of the amalgamation of the previous three (3) stages.
Everything starts within.
Know it there before you share.
Know it there before you care.
Know it before you dare.
