Elevate the Beat

Somehow it all falls away and blends in like splashes in a body of water
Everything feels full.
Circle spins and looking glass magnifies the small miracles... the driving force behind the great.
Wave crashes over mentality
Consciousness animated
Breathe in. Breathe out. Smile. Laugh.
Superhuman touch elevates the beat
Uncompromisingly potent
Love permeates the room
Compassion encompasses the walls of my heart
I Forgive.

That Crazy Love

Body language. An open hand is an open gesture. The say when you meet dogs you should open your hand to let them sniff you as a friendly approach. Body language studies reveal the fact that people are more attractive and approachable if their palms are facing you because its an open and non-threatening position. Its interesting to think about what our nature has to teach us and how it all connects.

Nature is constantly changing and evolving into something different. Its unpredictable and the forces of nature can bring anyone to their knees. At the same time, there are things about nature which are absolutely predictable. The sun rises and sets daily, the seasons change, and there will always be light somewhere in the dark. Like the unpredictability of the ocean, life's obstacles bring unexpected lessons and in every circumstance there is something to be learned.

Things and people contradict themselves and you can be a good guy or a bad guy no matter what you've done. I guess that's the beauty of it. Just like nature and the ocean, life is so deep and wide that there are so many unknowns lingering beneath the surface and in order to find any sort of understanding you must focus on the heart of it all which is inside of you. You are not better or worse then anyone, just in a different stage and where there is understanding there is love.

"Love is like the sea"... our job is to just find a way to simply Be. "When you point your finger, notice there are three pointing back at you." I guess the best way to live is with open hands, ready to give and receive for the greater good. We can only control ourselves and it is our job to remember when we are pointing the finger what the other three are trying to say to us. When things get tight, take the clenched fists & release the fingers into open palms, unarmed and ready to serve.

"Love is patient. Love is kind. Love is not jealous, boastful, proud or rude. Love hopes all things and endures all things. Love never fails." Love doesn't point at you, instead the nature of love is open handed and welcoming, bearing fruit that satisfies the soul. Love is the most powerful and unpredictable force on the planet and it can be found anywhere in anything in anyone at anytime. The choice is ours.

Love.

Inside the Spirit

There is something in the spirit... Something that captures the soul and the very essence we are made of. The spirit is "life, breath, vitality, animation, psyche, essence, substance, soul, vision, courage, boldness, enthusiasm, humor, frame of mind, temper..." (-thesaurus). We all have a spirit and I believe the spirit is like a muscle. The more we strengthen it, the stronger and more sustainable it becomes. Also, the more we practice having access to it, the more we will gain access... I also believe strengthening your spirit is like strengthening your Faith; its a life long process.

Salt and light are agents of change. Salt adds flavor. Light dispels darkness. We are meant to be the salt of the earth and we can add flavor by feeding our spirit because that's where the light is found. In the place that can't be explained by science or time and place... the spirit is the essence that we are all connected to.... like love as the ocean. I believe when the spirit is expressed wondrous things happen and miracles are born because light is revealed.

Our free will determines how we want to or will allow our spirit to shine. It can shine in various capacities and eventually will effect something or someone somewhere in someway. For some people its in their music, corporation, acting, art, writing, communicating, comedy... for others maybe in their teaching, in their environmental involvement, sports, technology... either way we are throwing our flavor into the big combination daily whether we make that attempt or not.

All of the flavors are mixed into the melting pot and we are all indefinitely changed by one another... I asked my little Ethan (11 yrs old) why he loves Eminem's music so much and in his description of all of the good things he had to say about Marshall Mathers, he said sometimes his music makes him cry. I think its in the place where science and time and space can't divide us where we can find connection and purpose. Its in feeding the spirit where we find any sort of satisfaction.

The Big Bang

 The Big Bang. The fire ball created the Universe. The expansion came from extreme states of heat just like a diamond is formed under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions. Both have the ability to disperse light of different colors. Not like a diamond is any basis for comparison with the Universe but it is an interesting concept to think some of the most remarkable miracles can happen from the most heated circumstances. What we think might burn us alive can actually be what builds and forms the most beautiful from the inside out... from the ground, up. 


I guess that's just how it works. The natural. There is much agitation before the fire is ignited and there will be even more if you are considering the flame of a fire ball. Sticks are rubbed furiously together, match hits the box and the sparks start to fly... it takes building before a fire ball is able to fly. Maybe that's just the way its suppose to be. The agitation comes before the rogue and the spark before the fire. The Big Bang happens and that's how everything changes. The wild fire burns with love and every live creature feels the heat while it rapidly expands. 


What if you gave up? No more rubbing the sticks together- no more brushing the match against the box- no more ignition of the flame- no more flame- no more fire ball- everything stays the same- no new growth- no change. What if you gave up? No more building the wave that will set off many others spinning into the vastness with love- no more building relationships- no more hope- no more trust- no more waves- no more surf- stagnant water. Sometimes when we feeling like giving up its right before the Big Bang and that's when all of the building is set into motion and rapidly expands with love because you didn't give up and it was in your spirit where people found hope.

A SPIRIT OF LOVE... press on

"The Big Bang was the event which led to the formation of the universe, according to the prevailing cosmological theory of the universe's early development (known as the Big Bang theory or Big Bang model). According to the Big Bang model, the universe, originally in an extremely hot and dense state that expanded rapidly, has since cooled by expanding to the present diluted state, and continues to expand today. Based on the best available measurements as of 2010, the original state of the universe existed around 13.7 billion years ago,[1][2] which is often referred to as the time when the Big Bang occurred.[3][4] The theory is the most comprehensive and accurate explanation supported by scientific evidence and observations.[5][6]

According to the Big Bang model, the universe expanded from an extremely dense and hot state and continues to expand today. A common analogy explains that space itself is expanding, carrying galaxies with it, like raisins in a rising loaf of bread. The graphic scheme above is an artist's concept illustrating the expansion of a portion of a flat universe."

We're the Music


Bless the Fruits of our labor. 

"MUSIC: The combining of sounds and tones as a form of artistic expression. A composition rendered by instruments or singing voices; a copy or copies of such a composition. Any PLEASING combination of sounds."
"MUSIC: harmony, melody, tune, air, strain, song, measure, refrain, tone, sharp, flat, major, minor, key, mode, bridge, theme, movement, orchestration, variation, improvisation, rhythm, BEAT, down-beat, up-beat, off-beat, volume, resonance, symphony, serenade, trio, march, blues, dance, modern, popular, sacred, soul, appreciation, sensitivity..."

Music is both perceived and conveyed within the boundaries of our body, mind, spirit and soul. It can be as simple as the sound of your voice, laughter, your athletic abilities, writing, acting or the ideas you have floating around in your mind. Everyone has music inside of them and the music is heard and played daily whether we are aware of it or not. We are all instruments playing our song into the vast Universe.

In life/work/career/dreams/family/marriage/relationship/friendship trials come. "Love is like the sea"... deep and wide.... filled with the known and unknown.. both powerful and unpredictable.. uncontrollable and extremely significant. Our music sounds and what is heard is up to each one of us in our own journey.

Today we have the opportunity to play... you can go solo, do a duet, you can sing, dance, write people into a trance, work as a team or triumph individually. The reality is, when all is said and done, music is filled with any PLEASING COMBINATION of sounds, consisting of many components. In the bigger picture, we are working together for the Greater Good and we are the different components connected to one beat... love.

Our gift is in our song. Everyone has a sound to fill the Earth with, but the real MUSIC is made with a PLEASING combination of sounds.

The Glittered Sky



To create is to bring into existence what has not yet had the chance to rise before
To create is to produce, perform, build, construct, make and form. 
All of creation (as we know it) is the Universe
Creation is a result of creating -- Creation is original.
The inventive artist finds ways to be productive.

 There is always a way. The gift of the artist comes in finding the path and blazing the trail when they arrive. It comes with imagination and requires nature, totality and Faith.

I was walking my dog the other day and for the first time I realized why he was running crooked. I'd seen him do it hundreds of times but I didn't really understand the nature of it until the other day when it clicked in my mind. He is a Herding Dog by nature, a sheep dog, so his job is to keep the herd going in the right direction. Well, when we go walking, I/we are his herd and I noticed him walking according to that pattern. 

When I was going too far to the right side of the trail, he would turn his back side all the way to the right with his head and neck facing the left to point me in the right direction. Then, when I moved over to the other side of the trail he switched his positioning in the exact opposite direction to guide me the right way. I laughed to myself thinking about these things that are so innate to us that we might not even be aware of on the conscious level but we each have special gifts and talents to offer.

My dog was born a herder and his natural instincts come out in any circumstance but sometimes in different form. For example, if he was herding a group of sheep somewhere he'd be running circles around them and maybe biting their legs to get them moving. If he is near the kids around the pool he herds them away from the water by nudging them with his nose. When he hikes or walks with humans, he is the guide and makes sure they are moving along together on the right path just by shifting his body. No matter what, he just naturally does his job.

We all have instinctive gifts inside and we all have the ability to create ways to use them. We will come to different paths and platforms in which our gifts and talents will be used accordingly. May our creations shine as if we just threw a fist full of glitter into the sky and created sparks of light illuminating the darkness. Or may our creations be a solid beacon of light to brighten the path for others who don't know the way. The best of all creations are drawn from the source of all creation. The Creator, the Maker.
