Intimidation

Since I was young I have allowed others to intimidate me into believing that I had nothing important to say. I have allowed others to voice their opinions over mine and stayed quiet. Many times because I felt it was needed to keep the peace. I see now I was wrong. My ability to see where pain can be used to heal wounds and mend fences was limited. I have been through a lot in my short life. None of it comes close to what I have heard or seen others endure though. I have grown to understand the words of songs like Nickleback- second chance because I know what it's like to be so close to someone and be so afraid of what would happen if I stepped away. It's ironic how I have lived in my head for so long, yet my greatest fear was speaking my mind because I didn't want to be cast aside.... I know my beliefs are unique. I know these beliefs and my methods shake the foundations of what people believe. I understand just how uncomfortable it is to truly question everything u have ever been taught in life. Pain never goes away. The evil voices in your head will never shut up, but their is a balance that can be maintained. Just because they speak evils that nobody but u will ever comprehend don't think u are alone. We all have an internal battle to fight. I've learned that everything we have been taught about ourselves and the relationships with others is wrong. Too many people are broken and believe that they must find a partner to repair the damage. This is a lie. The ability to repair the damage is within us and when two broken individuals try to fix each other the pain within each of us is like a magnet and instead of healing it tears us apart. I have experienced this and have watched this happen. I do not have all the answers, but what I can tell u is that compassion and a change in perspective will go a long way to helping. I have found a lot of helpful people out there. I try to share with others, but I feel it falls on deaf ears. I speak through pictures, words, videos from others and music. If your searching for something. Take a stroll through my Facebook page, my blog, or my website. I may not be the one u wanna listen to, but maybe someone I know will grab your attention.

Quiet No More!

A note for those that are looking to retire.

This letter goes out to all the hard working men and women that are looking to or are at retirement age. To all those that have children, grandchildren, nieces and nephews. I understand u feel like we are spoiled brats throwing a tantrum. Yes, we are young and spoiled by our technology, but that doesn't mean we don't understand just how hard you have worked over the years for us. We fight with Bernie Sanders for u just as much as we do for our kids. Everyone who has had children wish to leave this world a better place for them. This is our opportunity to ensure they have one. If u think we are not looking out for the older generation u are mistaken. How's retirement looking for u? We know it's crappy. Many of u have to continue to work well past your time. This is not right. We want you to enjoy your hard earned retirement just as much as we want our kids to not have to work their tails off till they are your age to properly enjoy their lives. Truth is we have all been lied to and made to believe this competitive world is the way things have to be. If u would simply stop and listen to what I have to say u may understand why this fight with Donald Trump, the republicans, and the 1%. The fight that has been going on for so long can be ended. It's not going to be easy, but don't let anyone tell u it's impossible. They said that about slavery, they said it about Jim crow laws and segregation, they said it about women's rights, and so much more.... all of it has been changed or abolished altogether. We are told we must compete to survive but we know if we compete we will all suffer and die. Now is our time to finally turn things around and create a society where nobody has to suffer. The time of greed must end. We are all human and nobody is better than another individual. I was told as a young man, that I did not know what I was talking about and I needed to be quiet and let the adults handle things. Well, I am now 30 and my opinions haven't changed. Our society has taken a nose dive however. So I say to all those adults that told me to keep quiet. Now it's my turn to speak up. Now it's your turn to listen. Unlike u I don't want everyone to shit up. I want u to listen to what I have to say. Why? Because they say it's not the loud ones you have to worry about, it's the quiet ones. I have been silent for 30 years and I have heard and learned a lot. I have seen both sides of so many arguments that I know what's going on and how to fix a problem within moments of hearing the opening statements. Understand this one thing. If u truly care for those closest to u. Quit competing and start helping those that are weakest amongst u. Race, religion, sexual orientation, and age are unimportant. What's important is having compassion for one another and working together so nobody has to suffer. We fight for the future of humanity. Will u join us?!

Spanking and violence

This is a topic I have witnessed discussed heatedly  for some time now. I will admit I have whipped my children in the past however, looking back I regret doing so and I will explain why. Many older adults often claim the problem with kids these days is the lack of corpral punishment. ( not being spanked enough) I would have to disagree. I grew up with some spankings, but they never taught me anything positive. I learned how to be sneakier so I wouldn't get caught, how to lie better, how to get someone else in trouble for something I did, and how to take a beating and walk it off like it never happened, and if you have the power you can simply beat someone until they do what you want them to do. Over all I learned nothing positive from spankings. I also grew up hearing adults brag about how they were beat and tell glory stories about the fist fights they got in as kids. When I see the violence kids do today I recall the stories of my youth and I can't help but see this as kids trying to one up their grandparents glory stories of violence not a result of violent movies and games. Add to this the fact that as a country, every time another group of people or country does something we do not agree with we immediately jump to a violent reaction. We can't have a country constantly trying to bully and use violence to solve conflicts and blame a lack of spankings on kids being violent it's just not right. Stop glorifying beatings, stop glorifying war, and start teaching children compassion, how to see things from other people's perspective, how to deal with bad emotions in a healthy way, and how to compromise efectively (unlike our government)

Meditation

While it is possible to focus solely on the object or outcome of your affection, the most effective way to meditate is by staying present instead of mentally pretending you’re influencing the future. 

Meditation is the act of focusing on your present situation and evaluate what can be done, what can't be done, and what outcomes to expect.When you meditate do not try to stop or alter your thoughts. Your mind wants to be at rest and is constantly trying to get you to deal with bothersome things. You should not be ashamed or afraid of these thoughts (only you can hear them after all!) let your mind wander and simply observe these thoughts. Over time you can focus on certain thoughts or decisions you need to make in life. Life is about choices and if I may borrow a science quote, "every action has an equal and opposite reaction." Life is cause and effect. Your every decision affects someone in some way, many times we do not even realize how every minute action can have severe life altering implications for someone else. I have witnessed people flip from being the happiest person on earth to cold blooded psycho in a matter of seconds. How many people have died in car accidents over split second mistakes? seconds matter and even a single word or simple act of hate can cause someone to do something horrible. I believe it is important to meditate on what impression we have made on every single individual we have come across. Admittedly this is not a favorite thing to meditate on. However, I believe it is vital. We get too caught up in ourselves and our own craziness that we don't see one another. It was not always like this. People once worked together as a community and there was no competing. We are told there is not enough resources to go around, but that is BS. We are told so much crap that many people feel it is impossible to live happy. They become addicted to anything they can just to numb the pain of a miserable existence. This lifestyle is WRONG! We must learn to live a more social lifestyle. We accomplish so much more when we work together rather compete against one another. Tribes were once the way we raised families. The downside to this was pride and greed. Certain families felt that they were superior to other families and began to act accordingly. Today, the family pride is still there strong, however some have realized that we are all one big family. It does not matter where you are from, pride does nothing but cause harm. Let us move away from this and move toward compassion. Nobody is born better than anybody. We must stop acting superior to anyone and start treating one another as equals and show compassion on one another. Forgive easy, help more, and show respect to those that may not deserve it, because a compassionate individual understands that not everyone has the ability to handle the weight of this messed up world. The Buddhist define anger as an outward expression of your extreme sense of disappointment in a situation not going the way you wanted it to go. So, when you find yourself face to face with an angry individual try to put yourself in their shoes. What outcome were they expecting? Was it reasonable? Why did this outcome not happen? What can be done to come close to or achieve their desired outcome? Ask questions and show a true interest in what they are saying. Only when we communicate with one another can we find peace. Violence just makes people mad and creates more violence. Let's end this cycle and start showing some compassion. It all starts and ends in the mind. Meditation will help you strengthen your mental capabilities and be able to navigate this fast paced world so much more efficiently. You will also slowly find more peace then you thought imaginable, even if things completely fall apart....

How do you define attraction?

Who do you find attractive. What qualities make them attractive to you? Why is it that this person is attractive to you? Love, lust, sex, boundaries these are things that we struggle with today. How we define male and female and what relationships are appropriate has been an issue since mankind's origins. It is clear that men and women are different, but why are we that way and why do men try so hard to be the dominant of the two? Different doesn't mean one is superior, it just means that we have different expertise to bring to the table and together we can accomplish more then we ever could on our own. Male and Female are but two parts of what makes up humanity. At our core we are exactly the same. Men have certain qualities that make them naturally better at certain things and women are naturally better at things too. There is so much more to explaining this then genetalia. For starters, why is the jobs men typically do more important? How we define worth in our society really confuses me. I have been at the very bottom of a company and at the top of a company. Truth be told I find more worth in the individuals that do the lowest paid jobs then the ones that get paid the most. There are two ways to look at this. Science or Religion. I find many religions confusing. Parts of their scriptures teach equality, but a lot of what is preached and done is far from equality. Marriage is diacussed but its not typically about love its about male ownership of the female. Homosexuality is eather barely discussed or only male homosexuality is discussed which brings up a double standard for lesbians. Science has come a long way in helping us understand ourselves, but I have not seen anything that discusses the how or why we are atracted to certain individuals. Without fully understanding the why how can we tell people they are 'loving wrong.'
