DAILY DEEPAK!

Beyond the secret passages, dark alleys and ghost filled attics of the mind is a field of bliss.


Turn entropy into evolution. Focus on relationships instead of consumption. Feel the world instead of trying to understand it!

BANDS ON DEMAND!! - feat. Jimi Cravity

Yesterday was magnificent; one of those moments that makes you take a step back to realize just how far you've come and how much further you've got to go. For those of you who don't know, aside from doing my "solo thing" I'm also a member of an alternative/rock band with my good friend Jimi Cravity. Yesterday we filmed Comcast's "Bands On Demand" , which will air in about 3 weeks for all Comcast customers out there. It was so dope! --- cameras, green rooms, FOOD, interviews, and all that good stuff! The interview was a bit shaky for me (I'm camera shy), but everyone else nailed it. I was proud and impressed to say the least. One of the questions I was asked was how singing with Jimi makes me feel. I freestyled some corny answer, but if I could do it all again I would've said........

Singing with Jimi Cravity is FREEDOM. - it's happiness and peace and joy and freedom :) . Rehearsals are like the greatest worship service ever! It just feels GOOD. 

.. and my answer would've sounded something closer to that.. because that's just the honest truth. Tune into On Demand in a few weeks and check us out! 

And here we are:

Decomposing Love?

As human beings we aren't designed to be alone. We crave love, affection, and acceptance, sometimes to the point of it being detrimental. Even people you see who seem so strong have such a fragile equilibrium when their other half isn't present. It makes me wonder will we ever be able to make it any significant amount of time completely alone? From what I see life can be ironic and almost a cruel joke. You can't live with them, can't live without them, Right?

I know because of how I feel that there's something wrong with me, and I know it isn't only me. It's everyone. It's like a cancer or bacteria or a trance. It's not on the skin, its in the soul. It shows itself in lust, anger, jealousy, and depression. It's the broken quality of life. The thing that makes you want to stop trying, stop giving, and stop caring. The only thing that brings you up out of the sickness is Love.

The hope that someone gives you and confirms that you're not alone in the world; That tries to give you what you need and they let you lean on them. Your soul takes a deep breath when you see them and all is right with the world. It's hard to find, but you drag yourself through a lifetime of heavy emotions just clinging to that hope. And you will wait forever for it, slowly eroding. Even the Mona Lisa's falling apart. Sometimes I wonder whether we are moving through time or if time is moving through us. I guess that's the beauty of life. Not knowing.

"Everything is the same, Even if it's different."

Lose Myself

I used to do it for the love a long time ago

and all i ever wanted was love

I used to love without fear a long time ago

and all i ever wanted was love

then somebody came around and tried to hurt me

tried to make me feel like i was unworthy

took pure love and tried to make it dirty

truth was they never did deserve me

Had to lose myself.

DAILY DEEPAK!

In every moment of our existence, we are in that field of all possibilities where we have access to an infinity of choices.

We see the world as we see ourself. And also-what we see we become. Choose to see what you want to be :)

HEART SWAP (a text conversation feat. mirian h. )

Me: DARN! -- I dropped it :(

Mirian: 10 second rule.

Me: Oh yeeeaaaa.. Thanks!

Mirian: Anytime.. be careful now.

Me: K.

PENNY DISCRIMINATION!!!!! >:-O

So, yesterday while cleaning out my receipt ridden purse I realized I had about 4 lbs of change at the the bottom. That's like the weight of a newborn baby. So anyways, I dumped it all onto the floor and immediately began to separate the pennies from the dimes, nickels, and quarters ( and marta tokens lol) .. the silver from the brown.. the light from the dark. Do you guys get where i'm going with this??! When i realized what i was doing.. smh.. i knew what it felt like to be racist/prejudice! :( There I sat.. with and old rusty penny in hand. Why didn't i feel the pennies were worth saving or tossing back into my wallet? Everyone needs pennies sometimes.. for tax purposes or even for making wishes at the fountain at Disneyland... and 107 of em can even get you a burger. So i gathered em back up and tossed em right back into my wallet with the rest of the change. They're just as useful. And tomorrow i'm gonna take all 107 pennies and buy a bacon cheeseburger from Wendy's! ........... yes, that's exactly what i'll do.

Penny discrimination must cease.

DEEPAK CHOPRA!

.. is truly one of the most enlightened of our time. 

He puts together sentences that not even my favorite songwriter could construct.

He says all of the things that I constantly think about but can never articulate.

He is a master of knowledge.. as well a master of the mind. 

He reaffirms my insanity yet makes me feel sane by giving me something to relate to!

This dude.. is SO cool.. that i follow him on twitter and i don't even have a twitter account! Ha 

LOL

So.. I say all that to say I'm inspired everyday by his "tweets" and I'm gonna be reposting them on my blog. I've posted a couple below :)

You are nothing perceivable or imaginable but without you there is neither perception nor imagination, so the world is in you.  -deepak chopra

If you are in any of the aformentioned categories then you will thoroughly enjoy these videos!



and if you're not...
well then you might like these ones ;)






... for those who were in a fruitier vibe.

so anyways.. i'm a fan of time lapse recordings.. not too big on fruit time lapse (although the banana vid had some pretty cool background music) but yea, i've actually watched hour long time lapse movies. I love to see evolution/degeneration over a period of time. Why? you ask.. cuz it's COOL. Time is the eternal phenomenon! --- until 2012 of course.. when it all ends! LoL j/k :)
