Sense of center, refined

I woke up with the carcass of a bird on the left of my tent—my guides way of telling me that I have evolved to higher frequencies and that it’s time to move on. 

The two days and two nights I have spent here have given me clarity, removed shackles from enclaves past and taken me closer to the wisdom of who I am. 

Where I will spend the next night is yet to be revealed to me.

Lessons from the sea

Countless drops in unison, an overwhelming force one has to respect. The sea is water in its complete form, an entity through which life evolves. 

Looking at the sea is looking at life, what life is, what life has always been, and what life will be. 

I am of the sea – therefore, I find myself in it, as I always have and always will.

Purified in mind and bodies, I return to being, I return to the sea…

I am the sea.

The main character

I’m plagued by increasing sensations of unrealities within my field of perception. Where I once sought meaning I now seek what’s real, and consequently, discover what is not. 

I’m losing my sanity. The constructs and systems that kept me sane are crumbling. My sanity no longer applies—it can accompany me no further. It's a luxury I no longer can afford now that my eyes are open.

I’m becoming the main character in my life as I awaken anew. 

Not a dream

You and me - two of three parts. A key to access reality. 

What’s the third? 

Today, I remember some of what was forgotten the night before, maybe longer still. 

It’s time. I reclaim time!

That very moment

Sometimes your actions are wonderfully and amazingly out of your control.

You do things, take chances and risks you normally wouldn't see yourself taking.

You don’t know why, but the reason is not important.

It is as if a set of conditions has been met. You are in a state of flow. Pure intentions, feelings, a state of excitement taking the risk.

Yet it doesn't feel like one.

It’s more like it’s thee right thing to do... the only thing you were meant to do at that exact moment.

Thoughts about the experience only arise after the event itself has passed, when you are back to the normal you.

These experiences aren't meant to be analyzed. Only to be taken in, observed, and felt with an open mind and self.

When strangers are brought together by something larger than life itself and are ready for the encounter, magic happens.

So much to learn: Life lessons, insights, the discovery of a piece of yourself you never knew existed, and the way it instantly changes you.

Maybe all the things you need to know and learn at that particular time in your life.

Enjoy life - let's not complicate it

You are born, you grow, and you learn the ways of survival within your necessary and trusted circles;

life then flows unconsciously by like an unobserved creek in your backyard.


Enjoying life is a conscious choice!

Since birth, I was taught how to survive and which paths I should take for success in life.

But I was never taught the merits of enjoying life.

Instead, life flowed in an automated fashion where shades of success and failure dictated the level of enjoyment I 'deserved'.

How I have learned to enjoy life

I have discovered that the secret to enjoying life is to live each and every moment to its fullest.


It is one of those simple but hard things to do.


For me, this means:

  • Be fully present in each moment
  • Actively take in every aspect of the moment
  • Feel and appreciate the beauty of multiple perspectives
  •  Realize the blessings of what you are experiencing
  •  Be grateful
  •  Connects as deeply as you can

And if you ever think of will the next moment begin? The answer is:

- Now

- Always

- It already has...

Being mindful brings awareness into each moment, hones your perception, and infuses joy deep within one's self.

Conscious moments nourish compassion, remove the filters of ignorance, and allow us to fully experience the joy of life

My heart yearns

My heart yearns to express its truth. My truth yearns to be understood and seen. 

Sadness washes the present when my heart cannot be heard and my breath shallows. 

Time becomes elusive, the present fragmented. I’m ready to take flight but yet to soar. 

I’m awake but yet to be freed.  

Losing sight of my bigger picture

The real reason to get anything done is when they are aligned with something more elevated as they are only a separate piece of a larger picture.

More frequently than not, said big picture is not seen, and in some cases, not understood.

This is simply due to the lack of routinely checking in with your bigger picture, that is to say, that you actually have to take the time to design one in the first place.

Personal experience taught me to periodically check and adjust the overall puzzle. Otherwise, too much energy is wasted and my motivation takes a dive affecting all my life areas.

This has been the case for me lately, for I have dropped the ball.

I have plenty of seemingly valid reasons, that when scrutinized, are easily interchangeable with a myriad of excuses.

Not before long the actions you want to take and things you thought you want to accomplish lose meaning.

To avoid this from happening, the larger context must be revisited, written down, and treated with a level of sacredness.

In this regard, I have lost my way. So it’s that time for me again to reaffirm and recommit to my big picture, my purpose, and my mission.

What has changed? What to add and or remove, and where am I in the context of me, my wants, and needs?

Starting with the big picture and drilling down, the expected outcome is a list of short-term goals that are all aligned with the grand scheme that is life.

I am also expecting to form a few new habits that seamlessly enriches my daily life and activities.

Let's get to it!

A perspective on life

The question, "Who am I?" has been a long-standing companion that has kept me contemplating my reason for being and how I fit in the larger picture of the realities I perceive.

My approach to understanding myself has moved from a meditative nature to an experiential one where I primarily observe the cause and effect of my thoughts, actions, and inactions.

The sensations I experienced allowed me to perceive my realities distinctly separate from the flow of daily life while also intricately intertwined with them.

The exercise of frequently asking who I am has me continuously discovering what is and sometimes how I am changing. All things change, including who we are as beings and subsequently how we approach life.

In this way, I have come to experience the elusive nature of the above question. It's elusive because what we refer to as I or self, is like a flowing river, ever-changing.

As a result, each day provides an answer befitting the present day and not for the previous or the following.

This I fundamentally understand, but the speed at which these changes take place within me is a new discovery and I believe this has to do with my levels of vibration.

There is so much more than life in the context of existence and of what is. One perspective I am understanding is that life is an anchor in the third dimension of reality.

Looking at life this way gives not only a sense of structure but also a means to discover and or define a purpose - a practical corporeal purpose and not necessarily a spiritual one, and structure in terms of navigating and understanding subtler realities.

What this all means and how to practically apply this new insight into my daily life is something I need to figure out and put into daily practice.

One thing that is certain is that I am in desperate need to master this so-called life anchoring, or rooting myself in life may be a better way of putting it.

Perspectives of life are like the evolution of life itself - ever-changing.
