I've most likely posted this before
"The only real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes."
Inspires the hell out of me.
Today has been a very big eye opener. I have seen what money and greed can do to someone and I refuse to ever sell my soul to work for anyone like this. I don't need money enough to work at a negative workplace run by a negative man which will only cause me unhappiness. It simply isn't worth it, especially because my current two jobs come with quite a bit of happiness. I don't care if I can't afford to buy new clothes every week, or if I can't afford to travel anywhere for more than a couple of nights. I am happy and that's all that matters. Life is about being happy in every situation regardless of what you own or where you are, those things are a bonus. But to give up my sense of happiness and satisfaction for "things" that are proven to be ever so temporary, that would be the end of me. I don't care if I have a million dollars or one dollar in my fucking bank account. I should feel the same amount of happiness because happiness is internal. When you realize you don't need things from the external world to fulfil your life or to identify yourself with then you won't go searching for situations to put yourself in which will continue to fossil this concept. All I need is my health, people who inspire me, and enough money to get me through the day and to provide myself with such "luxuries" like eating out or going on an exciting day trip and I will be happy. Even if I was living on the street and I know it's easy to say now but honestly I never want to turn into someone who has connected their will to live with their ability to make more and more money. LIFE IS NOT JUST ABOUT WORKING. I can't handle people who live like this. I don't understand the whole "my life will be better when I buy this or go here or have x amount of money or get this job". I really don't understand buying happiness I'll tell you that now.

Last night I dreamt I was flying. Check this out...
If you are flying with ease and are enjoying the scene and landscape below, then it suggests that you are on top of a situation. You have risen above something. It may also mean that you have gained a new and different perspective on things. Flying dreams and the ability to control your flight is representative of your own personal sense of power.

Do you resent what you are doing? It may be your job, or you may have agreed to do something and are doing it, but part of you resents and resists it. Are you carrying unspoken resentment towards a person close to you? Do you realize that the energy you thus emanate is so harmful in it's effects that you are in fact contaminating yourself as well as those around you? Have a good look inside. Is there even the slightest trace of resentment, unwillingness? If there is, observe it on both the mental and the emotional levels. What thoughts is your mind creating around this situation? Then look at the emotion, which is the body's reaction to those thoughts. Feel the emotion. Does it feel pleasant or unpleasant? Is it an energy that you would actually choose to have inside you? Do you have a choice?
Maybe you are being taken advantage of, maybe the activity you are engaged in is tedious, maybe someone close to you is dishonest, irritating, or unconscious, but all this is irrelevant. Whether your thoughts and emotions about this situation are justified or not makes no difference. The fact is that you are resisting what is. You are making the present moment into an enemy. You are creating unhappiness, conflict between the inner and the outer. Your unhappiness is polluting not only your own inner being and those around you but also the collective human psyche of which you are an inseparable part. The pollution of the planet is only an outward reflection of an inner psychic pollution: millions of unconscious individuals not taking responsibility for their inner space.
Either stop what you are doing, speak to the person concerned and express fully what you feel, or drop the negativity that your mind has created around the situation that serves no purpose whatsoever except to strengthen a false sense of self. Recognizing it's futility is important. Negativity is never the optimum way of dealing with any situation. In fact, in most cases it keeps you stuck in it, blocking real change. Anything that is done with negative energy will become contaminated by it and in time give rise to more pain, more unhappiness. Furthermore, any negative inner stage is contagious: Unhappiness spreads more easily than a physical disease. Through the law of resonance, it triggers and feeds latent negativity in others, unless they are immune -that is highly conscious.
Are you polluting the world or cleaning up the mess? You are responsible for your inner space; nobody else is, just as you are responsible for the planet. As within, so without: If humans clear inner pollution, then will also cease to create outer pollution.
-Eckhart Tolle

All people should ever want from others is PURE HAPPINESS, LOVE AND LIGHT
It's crazy, my whole entire life I have rattled my brain dealing with the concept of solitude and what it truly feels like to be alone. I spent many sleepless nights battling this idea, the inept feeling of pure loneliness as a teenager that it nearly became the death of me. As I grew I began to let it go and created a sort of coven so to speak of friends who eliminated this feeling for a while. Honestly, I would still ponder that idea if it weren't for the spiritual teachings that have been brought forward to me. However, although I am not alone, I still feel a kind of segregation which divides me from many. It's crazy to say that ever since I picked up and Eckhart Tolle book that my whole entire perceptions were met and fulfilled. I have never felt the intense superstition that somehow a book was written solely for my learning. This book has really opened my eyes and confirmed the idea of pure consciousness. Just by recognizing everything this book refers to about unconscious living and ego control is an uncanny experience. But that's their learning so who am I to judge. You can't take what people do in THEIR lives personally, my mum has always told me that. Just as how you don't owe anyone an explanation. Something that has really stuck into my mind is the fact that you can't always please people, there will always be an unhappy soldier in the battle so why not do what is right for you and be happy in the process of living.
I feel obliged to make the obvious comment that we are not here to please others. I don't give a shit about what anyone else is doing so why the hell should they be focusing so much of their precious time on me? I do not appreciate it when people project their own insecurities upon me, and create a kind of fantasy reality as to how I have been living MY life (they forget that part because apparently they have so much to say about someone else's life because their's is perfecto). I am here to make a difference and to always be a good loving person full of light. Everything that I do will always be out of love. If they can't see that then they are clearly blind to me, and they don't know me. You'd be surprised how many people who are supposedly supposed to care about me don't know the first thing about me or how I live my life. I would NEVER purposely do anything to hurt anyone, even someone I COMPLETELY did not like. I can't even use the word hate because I feel bad. Here I go explaining myself, I suppose I am offering these words as a solution to any negative thoughts, not an undeserved explanation. I will always work towards bettering my life and growing as a person in every dimension of my being. More so, I will consciously decide to leave all negativity behind, and if for some reason I am feeling down, I will continue to persevere. I don't know if many people contemplate about what they are doing on this planet but I think about it every fucking day. I try to do something good each day, and I have been blessed to have a mum who has taught me so much about self respect, pride and staying true to myself that I will choose to dictate my life, not anyone else. If people decide that isn't good enough for them then so be it. I can read people's energies and I know when people have a problem with me, to be honest I don't care.
I can see how a good mood effects people, for better or worse. A good mood is contagious, and sometimes when a person is lost they can't handle it. They can't handle the light when they're stuck in a place so dark. It disappoints me to think that they have lowered themselves to that level. Especially people you felt you could count on entirely. It's true when they say "the only person you can rely on is yourself". Mum has always taught me to stay true to myself and hell why should someone change to suit another person. We aren't living their lives. Lately I have found myself feeling so disappointed with people that I let it consume me at some stage. WRONG DECISION THERE. We were all put on this planet to make a difference and I only do things that will help me grow and keep me fresh, oh so happy as Larry. I have no idea why I would ever suddenly be classified as a villain for staying true to how I feel I should live my life.
I don't know why I felt the need to express this idea but I just feel like there are so many people out there who are not being true to who they are and are not listening to what their true desires. They need to stand up for their beliefs and stand up for who they are. Just because the majority of people are doing things a certain way, does NOT mean it is necessarily the right way. If people refuse to like me for any reason, they are obviously the ones with the issues because from the bottom of my heart I am telling you all now that I come from a place of light and love.
I write these words in hope of activating a kind of spark in my reader because the time that we waste here thinking so negatively, is time we could have spent changing lives, making a difference to people and just plain and simply being happy.This has always been my mission and I plan to exceed it to its limit regardless of how many times people put me down or for some god forsaken reason have some kind of FANTASTIC comment to spread about me.
