I surrendered the beauty of Florida, Family and Friends...
a gesture beyond fear. 

I let it all go for the possibility of ALL of my dreams. The experience of leaving everything behind was somewhat therapeutic. Extraordinary people participate in extraordinary practices. I left my way of life, friends, family, home, car, motorcycle, personal belongings and job. In the idea of being an undeniable demonstration, there is no way around demonstrating the character to do such a thing. A life in two duffle bags,,, Awesome!!! 

You know, it is a new life. If I had to describe my feelings I would have to say that I am excited and very optimistic. There's so much "room" in my life now. I love the relationship that I created with people and things in Florida. I would always say that I know myself to be a "The world is my home" type of person. I feel strong in these early stages. 

So let's be honest, there are many things that are happening now. There's a traditional "missing" that my friends and family have. But I notice, and admire, that life goes on,,, nothing stops.   They are truly great people and understand the gift and chance that I have with this move. I wonder if the day will come when we will  love each other without a dependency of  proximity. I think we are really close.  The few who "jump" in this early stage of reinvention of relationships aren't granted an escape from the pressures that may come. There could be quilt, resentment, confusion, denial, anger, bargaining and acceptance from both ends. I love the stimulants that are involved with departure,,, letting go. 

I do imagine that the world will become our home. I imagine that we will have a perception of love that is truly not dependent of proximity but satisfying on an underlying and soulful language. I think we all have a sense of this "love language". It's only the time of acclimation that separates us. This is where the "I know, I know's" and "Good for you's" come in to play when an explanation of departure is given. So I guess what I'm saying is that I imagine the day when this sense, this love language, will truly be "enough". It's often that we are still grapple with the truth and ways of love. The sense of loss keeps coming around when someone leaves. I like that idea. Maybe we never really "lose" anything in life. We may live with a loyalty to people and physical touch or a loyalty to attributes and experiences? Both have their respected values. I think we  are of the brink of having a major psychological shift in how we relate to love. We are already doing so well. 

And then there are those who are ignited by such acts by others. The inspiration travels at light speed. The potential immediately feels limitless! Where could we go if we continued the momentum with intensity. I imagine a life of being ignited by everyone around me. I'd have to expect "motion" to be Everywhere. People coming in, people going out. Drastic but harmonic and welcomed change. I envision scrolling through my cell phone contacts and having it completely filled with ignition sources. I "never mind" the passing thought that it would be too much to bare or that there is an inevitable emotional cap of how much we can take. Why must we avoid the flow of love and inspiration? Would a "pure" cut of love kill us? Movement is necessary for greatness I feel.  I hold an idea that we (humans) may have become addicted to resistance. That without resistance we lose our perception of all advancements. We lose the clarity of who we are, what we are doing or where we belong.  This ties with the conversation "If there is no Hate could we feel Love"? I dare to challenge the natural logic and see what becomes of us once we get there. lol Why Not? I'm ready to unmask the silliness of the once known universal law.




 Is resistance really necessary? Could we call it drama? In some cases yes, but in others,,, I wonder.  What shape do You "know" the world to be? There may have once been another common knowledge or common law. There surely was within those who came before us. All that the conversation suggest to me is that the area of absolute Love is "Untapped".  What's wrong with a new contrast? Sure we may not yet know what the new contrast to love will be. There's nothing wrong about being called to adjust to a new unknown, I'd say. I see adventure.  I "could" see how it could be scary as hell! How ironic. Maybe such projected fear is all that there is to bare. The fear within ourselves? Maybe without man,,, there is no fear. Maybe without life there is no fear, yet we know that things will keep going on. We know that whatever is happening in the universe will not stop happening.  It will keep going. Without fear we simply move from this to,,, it. Whatever "it" is.  

Something suggest that in order to live,,, we have to be willing to die. That's quite a leap. So what do we mean by "die"? With an idea of current life being dependent upon fear (life leaves=fear leaves. without life=no fear. (Think of the happening of the universe), could we imagine what we would be left with if we drastically reduced or eliminated our fear? What's the next step? Can fear be transformed?

Who would dare to take "their" one life and move towards discovering a life without fear? What would it take of a person? The irony is that the first step may be confronting ALL of our current fears. "Hit it head on", I say. Perception is a powerful tool to eliminate fear. Create, learn or discover a Bigger picture that makes the gain far outweigh the loss. It's ok to start sounding nuts with this. What do you think? We "know" that we have a brilliant mind. We've been saying it for decades,  but we accept that we have yet to experienced it,,, in this life,,, in our lives. Being not seduced by the glimpses of brilliance to say that "we have". So what does it take?!! I mean to really walk and predominantly  live in a state of brilliance (Love) in our everyday lives. No fear and powerful motion is a good start I think. 

 There's clear alignment with even the recognition that life is a Choice. 

We can reinvent some perceptual development criteria, can't we? Heck yea we can!  What's the basis of our perceptions? Imposed fears from those in our past? Rather than basing our perceptions on fearful survival, we can create a new basis for contrast and assessment, leading to a greater perception. With our Imagination, we can create 

"A Bigger Picture". 

First step would be to find our way out the survival mindset, no?  Easier said than done? No kidding. But definitely doable, can we see that? What do you think? What a game to play. I find it inevitable to look and sound like a weirdo at times playing such a game but can you imagine the possible discoveries? All it takes is one to dare to discover. No worries about the world watching. They will surely follow suit when gold has been struck.

 I'd say that the reward is greatly disproportionate to the risk of simply looking or sounding weird for a little while. And with the contrast being the "same ole, same ole", what do we really have to lose? I like to consider that the new and even the undiscovered 

discoveries will one day be common knowledge. The choice to play such a game  as  a pioneer would totally be a personal call. It may very well be too painful to get "the looks" from others. Some people thought I was CarAeZaY to leave my job in Florida. Ultimately I had an overwhelming 100% support from my family and friends. Now, that's freakin Awesome!!! People with a labeled handicap get weird looks all throughout their lives. They show us that we can bare it already. Courage is called upon for "Us" to bring the discomfort upon ourselves for the sake of "New Life", New Love, New Places, New People, New Opportunities and so on and so on. :) 

I'm IN!!!! 

What do You say?
