notes on a conversation with the west

two months ago, i was blessed with intelligence and wisdom from a stranger.

every word that came from his soul and out his raspy voice was enlightening and humanizing.

his words brought me down from a mountain where I praised my accomplishments and settled me into the soil where my roots where buried.

here is a view into that conversation:

Optimism ≠ fueled by hope (understand the dangers and evils)

Our culture is getting weaker: integrity and loyalty fail – the ego and arrogance is rising

Listen to LEARN.

Bear witness in something bigger than yourself.

Keeping who we are in check with the varying dynamics of Life is challenging but is a pressing need

modern society is caught in a cycle of conformity – CANCEL IT!

Love your Enemies

he is a sign and symptom of our culture.

Skin pigmentation does not excuse courage or harm.

find your OWN voice (think, love, feel for yourself)!

Habitual Vision of the Moral and Spiritual Journey = (greatness)

now, it’s the light I seek.

From Day to Night

Days are constantly in motion, moving from morning to night, and back to morning again. Each part of the day is meaningful, and each is inspiring in their own way.

The early morning is inspiring, for it is peaceful and lively at the same time. Not many people are awake, but it is buzzing with life. One can be motivated to fill their day and get lots of work done.

If one sleeps in and wakes up to late morning sunshine, the day is going to be lazy – very relaxing and filled with casual events. Although less motivational, the day is still fulfilling and much-needed.

Evenings are relaxing as well – they end the day and put everything to rest. It is during this time that events from the day are finished, and one can shake off the stress from the day.

Late night is such a serene time of day. Completely dark, it is so calming, yet it is also invigorating. It allows one to feel truly alive, and although it is lonely, it causes one to be in touch with all of their surroundings.
