Henry David Thoreau On Living Presently.
Man is forced to confront himself when every distraction is gone. Man can only hear himself when every addiction is placed to the side. Being blinded by our addictions, and limited by our self imposed prisons we forget our beauty. We forget the power in our tongue, and value of our being. The only reality […]
Joseph Campbell On Bliss
Most people spend their days doing meaningless activities. Few people have learned to spend their time on a craft that demands our highest selves. We’ve forgotten our beauty. Which leads us to always begging for the eyes of people to save us. As we discover our lives have no purpose we grow wearier and wearier […]
Henry Miller On Surrendering To Life.
We deserve love, but we also must learn to accept love. Our happiness depends on how well we bear our responsibility. Our prayers are manifesting, but the actualization waits on us to allow life to unfold. Because of our own self-denigration, we struggle accepting love, wealth, and even the possibility of peace. Through surrendering we […]
The Hero Journey
The Hero Journey by Joseph Campbell might be the most needed text for our spiritual debasement. We contain the same stardust as Buddha, Christ, Shakespeare, and Homer, and must learn to embody their lives. Our relationship to our internal world determines the outcome of our lives. Wisdom comes from acting with the knowledge of our […]
Anais Nin On Reading
Our spirits are revealed through the content that nourishes our soul. There is no such thing as a bad artist only a artist that we don’t need at the moment. The purpose of the artist is to reach into the unconscious and shine light on our collective fears, doubts, and anxieties. The artists reveals the […]
Yuval Noah Harari On Meaning.
An infinite number of hopeless souls fill our world. And many more fight tirelessly for a sign, symbol, or sense of change that will fuel their aching hearts. Some days I appear to be the only one that can see the damage being done; my peers are weak from meaninglessness, but fight daily and hourly […]
Anais Nin On Faith
The energy beyond our eyes speaks in metaphors, symbols, synchronicities, and dreams, for only a few can bear the naked truth. The wisdom that produces all art requires a complete surrendering, and allowance of the flow of time only reflected in the absurd nature of dreams. Revealing a truth we may not be ready to […]
Anais Nin On Dreaming
It is easy to forget that we are being guided by something that vibrates beyond our eyes. Dream serve the purpose of guiding us toward what we want. Without dreaming, or wishing, life ceases to have meaning, and the hours become wasted. This life can easily become monotonous, regimented, lifeless, predictable, and move towards an […]
Anais Nin on Faith
In a world that always seems to conspire against our growth we must maintain faith in the purposefulness of our suffering. Believing every suffering, pain, and discomfort contains a blessing and a lesson. We put an immense amount of pressure on our future selves, and intensely judge our past selves, but in order to live […]
Olusola Adebiyi On Mindfulness.
Every individual must define masculinity, femininity, and mindfulness from the rhythm discovered through living internally. We are forced to craft an individual identity without knowing a historical identity, and a historical identity provides the faith to believe in the potential of life. While we are not purely defined by our survival when a people seem […]
