2 Thoughts

Tried some meditation today.  I think now is the perfect time to start making this a frequent habit. Or actually not habit, because to me a habit has the connotation of being something that is routine. This is not something you want to be necessarily routine, or just going through the motions. 
As I found myself going "deeper", for one thing I was able to achieve some moments of powerful inner peace. I did not consciously attempt to think anything. But the thoughts that did enter my mind happened to be the exact issues which I need to be facing right now. It was cool to see that my subconscious mind is working for me in a  positive way by revealing and forcing me to face those most pressing issues. To me this a powerful sign that I am successfully building myself in a positive way. 

2nd Thought. Just realized today how amazing it is that all people change and not always in the way I've expected. The friends I thought I would be close with are drifting away, and as some people turn more and more negative, I find myself having to place much less value on interacting with them, and making them less and less a part of my life, until probably they'll be phased out altogether. At the same time others who I never thought I'd keep in touch with I am now hanging out with them consistently. Once negative people have changed their character, and we are able to support each other and share the unspoken positive energy of being committed to becoming better as a person.

When You're a Stranger

I have to post an amazing quote by the top copywriter in the world. John Carlton. 

"We have to constantly remind ourselves we're strangers in a strange land."

A thought this brings up. Anarchists have always been known for their destructive tendencies, vandalism. It must be they just feel it necessary to kick the beast. But why is that? Anger? Is it ever really necessary to kick the beast. I don't know. Its impossible to really know what if any effect it has. I think about this pertaining to the many people who just don't "get it". People who nobody ever to them to just BE COOL. I think there is a place for tough love. 

More Dogs of War

Recent realization. One of the biggest dangers that hold people back is that small inner experiences most deem as harmless are actually killers. Buzz killers, agents of the enemy. These have to be eliminated immediately. There's no telling how much bad energy can hold a person back. Assassinate the glitches of inner human experience and thought, both conscious and unconscious. One of the best ways to empy the teacup.
