• The Prophecy That Will Change Your Life

  This video is a easy cookie cut way of explaining global warming, and the precautions of global warming, to a very misinformed individual.  I love it because we still have maybe half of the US population and 1/3 of the world population in skepticism about global warming.
  
  I hate to bring this issue up over and over again, but it keeps coming across my path, and I feel it is important that I spread my thoughts on this matter.
  
  I recently was at a magazine opening with a new friend of mine.  During this premere we discussed the atrocities that face man kind.  In our conversation, we had spoken about many of the positives and negatives about humanity.  Finally we came to "The Red Sky Prophesy."  Which was written by Tom Brown Jr.  This prophesy was handed to him from his grandfather in the 1920's.  Since then he has written about this and it is now posted on http://www.nexusmagazine.com/articles/redskies.html
  
  For those of you who are too lazy to read the article.  I will sum up.
  Tom's grandfather was a Native American who took spiritual journeys, and had the gift of clairvoyance.  He would have visions of the future.  Of these visions the four warning signs of man's extinction were the most important.
  
  The first two signs of man's extinction were the most crucial, because once the third approached there would be no turning the earth back to mercy.
  
  The First Sign
  A massive famine would occur which is blamed on the weather, and nature, but really was due to the over population of the earth (this has already occured, maybe not in the US, HK, etc. but it happened in Africa and is still happening).  Along with this famine there would be a disease created by monkeys, drugs, and sex (we know this as AIDS).
  
  The Second Sign
  This sign is that there will be holes in the sky (holes in our ozone layer) which cause raging weather patterns and storms, as well as massive earthquakes.  After this sign, humans could reach the point of no return.  The only way to heal the earth is to go back into nature, and change the lifestyle and ways of man.  This must be done not only physically, but spiritually as well.  Praying for the earth to heal itself.
  
  The Third Sign
  The Sky will turn Red and the stars will bleed from the heavens (I believe this to be from nuclear attacks on a global scale, which have not occurred yet).  After this sing, man will have one year to go into the deepest forest to survive.
  
  The Fourth Sign
  Finally the survivors in the deepest forests, will be the only ones to survive.  A massive famine, disease, plagues, war, will all break loose where man's society is.  It will take 10 years for this plague to cease and for the earth to heal itself.  In this 10 year process leaving the forest and deepest parts of the earth cannot occur if one wants to survive.  The curiosity of one can lead to the death of many.  After the earth heals itself, man must only be with nature, for he has no other option.
  
  We are right now in the 2nd sign, and approaching the 3rd.  We have a chance to make a difference in the world.  The solution to this problem isn't as easy as saying "the population is just too big, we just need to fix that."  We must fix our philosophy, we must go back to the ways of nature.  This doesn't mean look like Tarzan, but it does mean live sustainably.  It is time for you to spread the world.  If you read this spread the video, spread this blog.  It is crucial.  We all have a chance to change the world for the better.  If the 3rd sign comes take the other like minded and go into hiding, for we will never live life like we have seen it today.
  
  I truly mean it when I say "It is the greatest time to be alive" because now we have the opportunity to prevent mankind from going to extinction.  Call me crazy, but in the end, if I am wrong, it is because we prevented the third and fourth sign.  Tell your friends family and loved ones.
  

  
  

  
  

  I say this quote quite often, but every time I read it, I feel it has a different meaning
  
  "Be the change you want to see in the world"

• The Heterosexual Life Partner

  Tuesday, Oct 9, 2007 1:55AM / Standard Entry

  
  Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i4sizhcx06Q
  

  
  Interesting name aye! We call them BFF's or as my sister Jennifer calls them Gay Lovers.  This would be a person's best friend of the same sex.  Hence why it is called heterosexual life partner not homosexual life partner.  You may laugh at any time.
  
  I was revealed some very life changing news yesterday.  My roommate Rian http://www.alivenotdead.com/?stansel told me that he will sometime in the near future most likely have to return to Maine.  Rian is business parter in I Heart Organic, my roommate, but most importantly my current heterosexual life partner.  He is my wingman (I'm maverick).  A brother from another mother if you will.  It saddened me to hear that he would have to leave (which isn't final, but may very well happen).  As I reflected upon all that I have accomplished in the last year, I realize that none of it could have been done without him.  And I'm sure the same thing goes with him.  People operate as a team, to do something productive or unproductive, but either way they are striving towards happiness.
  
  Often times we have to move away from someone, or we have to leave someone, and this is just the journey of life.  My journey has lead me to meet some amazing people.  Even those that I consider to be bad or negative in my life, have had some sort of positive outlook.  Rian has had a very positive outlook on my life, and really the only thing I ever have to complain about is that he needs to do the damn dishes and clean up after himself.  Living with someone is hard, and everyone wants to respect one another's space.  What can you do but compromise?  If Rian and my roommate journey ends this year, it was meant to end this year.  All I know is that I am grateful to have him as a business partner, roommate, and friend.  It seems like life always takes unexpected turns.  One can mope and complain about it, or one can welcome the change, and live life more happily.
  
  It is always sad to see a good friend leave, esp when you spend 50% or more of your time with them, but like everything in life you always have to let go.  As cheesy and sappy as it may be, I will miss my heterosexual life partner.  He is the best wingman I have ever had.  Never in my life have I met as many girls as I have in this last year.  But it wasn't just the quantity, but the quality.  Never in my life have I achieved and accomplished so much in my life as well.  For this I thank Rian, and I wish him well, on his journey.  Often people do not treasure someone else's company until that company is gone.  Lets all seriously look at our friends, family, and random acquaintance and enjoy their presence.  In the mean time enjoy Flight of the Conchords.

• Why Marsha is Gorgeous

  Saturday, Sep 29, 2007 1:56AM / Standard Entry

  For those of you who don't read my sister's blog or have not gotten a chance, let me sum up.  My sister has been damned by the media quite a few times about her weight.  And the other day she was damned by a basketball coach (who I'm guessing is quite uneducated, and yes if somehow you get a hold of this and can read English, I am talking about you).  So Marsh, takes offense to this because she has worked quite hard for her body, and she is sill refferenced as fat every once and a while.
  
  First and foremost I'm going to break down the term of fat and the question "What does Fat" really mean.  The dictionary would say "having too much flabby tissue; corpulent; obese."  Well that is very undescrīptive because we all have flabby tissue, and are obese in some way shape or form (some males would like to think their manhood is obese or fat!).  But the term fat, even in the dictionary is quite relative.  Really the person that judges fat is the person, but yet we have societies definition of fat.  In the eastern cultures anything that has boobs, a butt, curves of any shape, or arms larger then a toothpick is considered fat.  In western society, we are a bit more accepting, but not with the current generation.
  
  Why does the eastern society damn fat?  The eastern culture, with the exception of a few eras, has always wanted women to be skinny.  My psychoanalysis of this is because of the male dominance.  You see, a woman that is skinny is weak and vulnerable.  And us men love to be the dominant force.  After all our excessive testosterone (and heavy use of alcohol) may very well be the reason for our rapping, pillaging, and battling of other countries.  Thus, a skinny woman is beautiful because it brings her into submission, and vulnerability.  Us me have big egos! and like the feeling of being able to crush a female when we are making love to them (which really most of the time is really "Fucking").  This sick twisted tale has been converted into modern day society and now the thinner you are the more beautiful you are.
  
  Today, we have a huge industry built on skinny.  Hell we make millions with it.  How per say? Well, lets think about the fashion industry which is geared to skinny women!  They make more money keeping as many people thinking that thin is in as possible.  Look at the fitness industry, which is highly popular because of our skinny images.  If we think of materials we utilize less if we are skinny, thus a larger profit margin for less materials.  We've turned a whole culture upside down, by making them spend more money on their cloths, and materials then their food (otherwise known as their life force).  The foods that are eating are "diet" foods.  The "diet" industry is a billion dollar industry.  I know because I'm in this damn industry, but in disguise to show people how to get back to "normal" human sustainability (shhh don't tell Big Brother).  Wow! that means that our whole modern day culture is based upon skinny and the means by which we make money is by this very deceptive campaign.
  
  Now lets share what is truly and very much beautiful.  Lets face it, a girl skinny as a rake isn't much fun in the sac.  There is nothing to play with!  Humans by desire love and want some part of the female body accented.  Skinny isn't one of those accents.  In the past it was foot binding, big boodies, long necks, big lips, etc.  Now its skinny? NO WAY.  I don't buy it.  I still want my women with some curves, but more so it is the energy of the woman that really matters.
  
  Skinny girls always want boobs, and girls with boobs always want their boobs reduced and to be skinny (not always but you get my drift).  Its a paradox, really what ladies (which the majority of my readers are) need is to love themselves (yes it sounds so hippy ish doesn't it).  Think about it, men respond the most to the energy of a woman.  Some men want women who always want to feel sorry for themselves, and thus a dysfunctional relationship occurs.  But, the special ones, the ones which you want a relationship (price charming) want a woman who really loves themselves.  And of course you want a man who really loves himself.  Otherwise there is no function in the relationship just two people who are using one another to make themselves feel better.  And that type of relationship has to end.
  
  Marsh! There are few people I know (and I know lots of people) who wouldn't think you are gorgeous.  That goes for the rest of my sisters as well.  Recently I had a friend with beautiful tattoos all over her body come to me crying about people discriminating her for her tattoos.  Really one can never stop negative comments, but one can change the perception or experience of them.  Next time someone says something that is negative to you repeat that negative comment back to them (e.g. Your fat! "so what I'm hearing you say is that you experience me as a fat person").  Now this may sound robotic or funny, but it isn't worse then a person feeling sorry for themselves.  Think of that person, he/she has their own dysfunction to be able to reveal such a negativity.  We are never really negative at someone else we are literally just negative something about us.  All our friends, family, acquaintances are, are really just mirrors.  So when someone says to you "your fat!" really what they are telling you is that they have a very dysfunctional childhood and they need help.   If you let it get to you just think of 10 things that you like about yourself, and then tell me how you feel.
  
  Marsh, You add a quality that very few Chinese women have in Asia, breasts and a butt, otherwise known as curves.  No matter what you are unique.  But no matter what there will always be criticsm.
  OK I'm done rambling enjoy what really goes into "Skinny"

• Peaceful Warrior

  Friday, Sep 21, 2007 12:44PM / Standard Entry

  
  Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkGvT_iS2fM
  

  
  "Sometimes you have to lose your mind before you come to your senses"
  
  "All you need to do is be conscious about your choice and be responsible for your actions"
  
  Those of you who have not read the book The Way of the Peaceful Warrior I highly suggest that you watch this movie.  Obviously the book is much better like always, but I realize many just don't have the patience to read.  I felt the movie captured the book, quite well.  I for one have not had a chance to complete the book, but I know that it is a book that will be completed in my life.  This book, like The Celestine Prophesy, are two books that truly express the true meaning of life, and what we are really looking for in life.
  
  Everyone always likes to say that they are doing things for a goal.  But, ultimately we all do things to be happy, not to complete the goal.  We think that the completion of the goal is what brings happiness.  On the contrary, happiness comes from within, peace comes from within.  Why do we always think that an object brings happiness.  We have people that tell us that we are happy when we succeed, or when we have a big house and a fancy car.  This is bullshit! You seriously choose to be happy when anything happens in your life.  Each and every person has control of this.
  
  The other day I had my neighbor come over to my house, and like always she was troubled.  She wanted a new job, which would free up her time, and would be a more enjoyable job, but the job would pay less.  So I naturally asked her "What do you need money for?" To which she replied "So that I can buy a big house!" "Why do you want a big house?" I asked again, "So I can make more money!"  You see she kept on running in circles, and never came to the realization that she was running in circles.  What she ultimately wanted was happiness, and she was looking for happiness, with her car, her house, the size of her bank account, etc.  She is spending her whole life searching for happiness, and looking for it through materials.  But inside she is empty, and lost.  All she is left with is an addiction, one that requires her to buy more, and supersize everything.
  
  I find this story very relevant to how we as a society run our lives.  Many will read this and say "Well I duh, I know happiness comes from within, but I love my house and my car :P."  We formulate attachments to these things, but really how many times do you wear your $200 shoes.  How, about how much time do you really spend enjoying your house?  The house that you spent so much time and effort paying for.  You see, we really just spend money or waste money, because we think we can buy happiness.  Is this an old cliche? Does the moral of this story sound redundant or like a ferry tale.  I guess it is all in your perception of life.  But know that you choose to be happy, sad, good, bad, evil, etc.  We really make the choice to do all these things.
  
  If you think what I am saying to you is "Bull Shit." Then I want you to take a good hard look at your life, and everything in your life.  Does it feel empty when you are alone? Do you fear yourself? Does your Ego have the best of you, or do you have the best of your ego? You see everything that  you want is achieved in the state that you are in.  If you want to get a role in a movie, or get hired in a new job, it is all up to you.  Your state, your ability to be present determines your completion of your goal.  Just know that the moment you release any attachment to failure or completion, that is the moment that you will achieve what you truly desire.
  
  I often times have clients who come to me to lose weight, and they try everything with their nutrition, their exercise, etc.  But, what they lack the ability to do is to look at their state, and be present with themselves.  They are always running from themselves, and are never happy with themselves, and they think that the goal is what will solve all of their problems.  The goal does not solve our problems, the state does.  The completion of the goal is not what feels so good, but the journey.  How can we be present for the journey?  This is where you reach happiness, and this is ultimately where you achieve the goal of life, Happiness/Peace.
  
  Enjoy Life!

• Love vs. Attachment

  Wednesday, Sep 12, 2007 2:37AM / Standard Entry

  This is a topic that I feel is quite striking and quite interesting for many to grasp.  I don't think in today's society we truly know how to decipher between the two of these.  When we as humans "fall in love" is this "love" or possibly "attachment."  Like most things in life, there is no right or wrong answer, just or own perception of what is right or wrong.  It is my perception that everything in life is debatable which is why we truly don't really have facts.  If we did we wouldn't ignore history, because history is the biggest fact/study known to man.  Love is much of the same.  We only look at a part of the historical views of love.
  
  We all watch the movies, and read the fairy tales on what love is.  Two people coming together and falling in love and live happily ever after.  And for some this is a truth, and for others this is highly unlikely.  Why is this?  Why can't we all get our own fairy tale and live the American dream.  My personal theory is that we really don't want it.  I mean honestly you wouldn't be whee you are today if some part of you didn't want to be there.  And that same rule applies to that of love.  If you wanted a fairy tale romantic dream, you would have created it.  Instead people created conflict and twists and turns.  Because if we all had a fairy tale life wouldn't be any fun.
  
  So what is attachment and what is love?
  Lets start with love, or what I believe to be love.  There are 4 stages of love.  Most of the population are only at the first stage of love, and this isn't a bad thing, it just is.  The first stage of love is Sex and Violence.  Why are most people stuck here? because they only can comprehend this phase.  Sex and Violence is how our world works.  Otherwise we wouldn't be in Iraq and we wouldn't have celebrities that are "sex" icons.  If you think about it this is how we view much of the main stream movies of sex.  Porn, is very much at this level.  Often times showing sex as a means of entertainment and enjoyment (which as I said before there is nothing wrong with).
  
  The second Phase of love is conditional love.  In Chinese culture we are too good at this phase of love.  How many kids are spanked in the name of love? "I'm doing this because I love you."  Or how about loyalty.  You show love with condition.  Lets think about it.  If you don't do this you don't really love this person.  Thats conditional love!  If you are committed to me and me alone, that is conditional love.  Yes you herd me right, a committed relationship, where love is expressed through commitment is conditional love.
  
  The third phase of love is compassionate love.  This is love without condition but with compassion.  This means that a person truly loves the person no matter what, and does not act on conditional actions.  To love with compassion is to love without a punishment, but still this person may feel wronged in certain situations.  For instance if the person was cheated on he/she would be able to truly let go and forgive his/her partner for cheating on him/her.  This is also the level where certain promiscuity is (notice I said certain).  This is two people able to being completely open and honest with one another's feelings with out being angry at a person for taking one action or another.  Thus, an open marriage where both husband and wife are able to be promiscuous, but yet still completely love their partner.  Or this could be two people who are honest and decide that they want to be committed to one another, but still share their true feelings with one another.
  
  Finally the Fourth and final stage of love is Unconditional Love.  This is truly loving someone no matter what.  I don't believe this stage of love to be achievable by humans, but it has been achieved by what we know as avatars.  This would be Jesus, Buddha, Ghandi, Krishna, Yogananda, etc.  When we love unconditionally we love like a plant or animal loves.  We love without regret or condition.  This is love where we can be spit at and just wipe it off (Buddha), or slapped and just turn our cheek.  This is what unconditional love is.  It is not even polarized as good or evil it just is.
  
  Then What is Attachment?
  Attachment is in the first 2 phases of love.  It is when we feel we miss someone, or cannot be without someone.  Really attachment is what we mistake for love.  When we say we are "in love" we are really just attached to the person.  This is when we need or must be with someone.  Its something that is very tough to grasp, because all our life we are given the illusion of a fairy tale for love, and really it is attachment.
  
  These are merely my perceptions of what is love and what is attachment.  For some this will resonate with you, and others this will offend you.  My purpose is not to offend anyone but make people think.
  
  Osho is one of my favorite philosophers and this is a book talking more on this subject. 
  
  Be Well
