Wishing, Wanting, and Ranting

The infamous phrase comes to mind too often, "Be careful what you wish for."

I feel that if people are oblivious to their surroundings, the consequences that come their way give a blind-sided reaction. "What, why'd that happen” Really? Whether you believe in a god and all his children or a goddess and all her creations, there is something to say about how our day-to-day lives unfold. Do we have a path, a marked out journey previously laid out since the day we opened our eyes upon this world? Perhaps. Instead, maybe what we are given is a clean slate, a chance to start fresh to reach our destiny. I suppose it is up to us to figure out what that ultimate goal is. For me...utopia, in my immediate circle. Now many people think that this world is in a dystopia state and in the global picture, I would for sure agree.

An Aside: Utopia - a word first introduced in 1516 in the book Utopia written by a knight who was eventually beheaded for disapproving of King Henry's stance on the church...of all people). If Mr.More can see a Utopian dream during those days of renaissance, then I can most certainly dream of one in the state of this world.


It is what I make of it...it is as it is. I could, as I have done so in the past, rant about the idea of positive energy, self-fulfilling prophecy, living life full of intent, but I feel that people are on their own agenda. Until people do a little shake to themselves, the global state will remain as it always has been. Nobody in my circle knows who Mr.More is because it's not in the songs, movies, or still frames of newspapers and magazines. Why do I care? I don't. The point is that there has been so much of our past lost, preventing our generation to learn from unknown yet still brilliant heroes unsupported by mainstream society.

We turn into so many mainstreams but ignorance being bliss is a bullshit statement. People must know that there truly is life outside best buy, home sense, and McDonalds. Ignorance simply reflects the lack of awareness, the lack of ambition to consciously open the eyes to see the pain, greed, and flat out stupidity from third world countries to our skewed democratic society. Politics has for sure messed up democracy but individually, we can immediately change our world; our world defined as...in arms reach. Maybe I am a little bit too much peace, love, and happiness but the state of my world is awesome. Not perfect, just awesome.

So through out the ignorance and take caution in what you wish for. Want...tangible, realistic, positive 'wishes' for your greatest self, and these 'wishes', will indeed, come full circle. Your wishes may already have, but would you have recognized it? I try to think abstract on this one - I wish for world peace every Christmas and each year I receive peace in my world. Abstract. Further on that note, be so specific, you'd think your writing your autobiography days or weeks before it happens. Not only does this state of mind trigger awesome outcomes, the heightened awareness and intuition leads to so many new opportunities and choices.
