Solitude, my friend.

Just yesterday my mind raced into oblivion and I barely caught the end tale of this thing called "solitude". We go through life responding and reacting or not. But being still? Like really being still and trying to make use of that emptiness is special.

When I think back on the moments where I had time to spill my heart, I did, but now, I question what amazing things could have come from just being a bit more silent and conscientious. How many loves would I have kept? How much more feeling would have been spared?

In that silence we hear all kinds of things. Some negative, some positive, some encouraging, and some spiritual. In growth, I think this must be the secret place of the most high and I doubt that I could stay there forever. I started to miss connecting with people and I plugged back into the internet the moment it became uncomfortable. However, I felt refreshed and renewed at the fact that I had spent something like 9 hours awake without saying a word to a soul. Walking the streets, taking in the sights, brave to the world and completely muted by thoughts, memories and experiences.

I dare you to try it.


Laslty, this wouldn't be a blog without some form of promotion. So one of my (many) brothers, has a record coming out and you all need to listen to it, support it, buy it. On this here 999 aka number of completion and manifestation (read:http://www.calleman.com/content/articles/999_and_the_mayan_calendar.htm) the September 9 MIXTAPE by Ian Kamau is important, warm and insightful. Unlike his records that have come before, this one has its roots in what is classic yet still strongly appealing to the evolution of musical sounds with his own fusions of hip-hop, spoken word and RnB.There is fire and healing in its content and compilation. Its solid.

Enjoy.

What to Expect.

This is my personal blog to relax, relate and release all forms of expression the creator deems fit to inspire. Through experience, common sense and reality, we will journey in and through my mind. Sometimes a video, sometimes prose, sometimes a poem, sometimes a written or verbal rant. I want to share it all.

My motivation:

We should speak on this lightly, because I feel that sometimes, people may take things personally. I can be funny and serious. I can be extremely flaky (which many of you know) and superficial, but also incredibly reflective and prolific. So...this is just expression. I am sharing this for my growth and yours. So vibe on it, respond to it, embrace it. Its my humanity, my rage, my wisdom, my immaturity, my sensationalism...but most of all, my honesty.

Your motivation:

Sincerely-

• Vibe with...
• Embrace...
• Constructively criticise...
• Engage...
• Love...

ME!
