I'm Open Like a Parachute


Greetings loved ones,

 They say a mind works better when it is open like a parachute. In my journey of self discovery it is evident everyday that human beings are more connected than we would like to think. On my internet sites I have people with different opinions which I value very much. However, it is truly interesting to sit back and observe this game of self gratification. There are those who make it their "responsibility" to harass, convert, and belittle people who go against the grain. Some of us never take into consideration that the "grain" will always be subjective and objective. Depending on your background we may never operate the same in two different cities, towns or countries. On the other hand,  chaos is a natural pattern and we can evolve from everything we are exposed to. Non conformity is the voice for the people who do not have one.

True inner peace is the freedom to let others experience their own reality.  The more limited your reality is, the more limited you want the next person to be. Life is not about winning all the time. We have internalized that everything must be a fight. Nature is relaxation.

Separation is an illusion. Judgement is an illusion. We are all connected. We have been condition since childhood to judge others. We end up living a life of fear and insecurity. We defend our belief systems instead of staying neutral. Discernment is when you do not take things personal. It means having an open mind like a child who doesn't care about your physical appearance, what happened in your past or what you have in the works for the future. 

I decided to show more of my paintings and photography online.

Stay present.  Stay woke,

Show Up For Your Real Life

Greetings Loved Ones!!  The year is almost coming to a close. It's been a year of self reflection and a test of true sacrifice. When we leave ourselves open to possibilities there is no telling what will meet us half way. Energy will shift and new creation is born. I have always surrounded myself with humble and gracious individuals that give me the motivation to reach further. However, It felt amazing to unplug from the big city and tune into self in a small country setting. We can not be our best if we do not "check in" with ourselves from time to time.  I enjoy performing, producing and guest speaking but this year I declined all invitations so that I could dedicate my time to self development.    Without calculation, I took the time to pamper myself through gardening, writing, meditation, and self love. The true test and personal journey was using my inner guide to keep me grounded, aware and secure about my choices and who I have become.  I have come...

Dancing in the rain...

The Dalai Lama tells us to stop expecting life to be easy. Life is full of suffering and is ultimately unsatisfying; The only way to be happy is to train your mind to want less and to train your mind to penetrate the ultimate reality. I am rolling into the year with new hope and ideas. I have been invited to be one of the inspirational speakers at the L.A. Union Workers, "Womens Month Program." I am excited and nervous, but it feels good to be part of a great cause. My dreams have been vivid and seem to be telling me stories of my past. I've been writing like maddd. I feel the birth of a new poem! I've also been invited on a poetry performance tour at the end of the year. I'll have to string you along before I tell you my biggest project of the year. So stay connected. Indubitably, Indigo Lounge is going to be delightful on February 7th. The line up is SSicK! Join us for love and Black History Month. Get in contact with me if you would like to perform. We do th...
