Keep the facts in mind...

About Me

Naked...is a state of mind.I like part time tortured artists with full time light bright hearts who change their pain into stars in the dark, and are more willing to take risks than to fear missing the mark.Hold the light inside you lest you be pulled into the dark. (-: Now is now is forever. Transcend time and heal...and regain a sense of universal equanimity.I'm obsessed with Ace of Base, Miso Soup, Sweet potato, Soul singers, Walks in the woods, Wanting a Chicken Coop and my own house, Laughing, Ostriches, climbing Ivy, Documentaries, Miracles, Temperance, Sia Furler, Tom Green, Merkabah, Rhyme, Wearing my heart on my sleeve yet rolling my cuffs up, Jon Stewart, folding, mud wrestling, Carl Jung, snowball and pillow fights, synchronisity, the perfection of nature, The survival of sentient life on Earth, Secret schemes of the universe, how we operate, nerdy books, flocks of birds, meaningfull gazes, roller skating, cuddling with friends, Snowflakes, picking locks, untying knots, animals, Singing pretty things, humor, offensive or political jokes, freeing my will, Johnny the homicidal mainac, Stephen King, I-Ching, a softer world, nice peope, guacamole, Thinking, feeling, writing, organizing, and lucid dreaming.In the I Ching, there is no such thing as darkness, as a being can can only self destruct if there is no light and desire for love within a person. I love you endlessly in my heart...we all do."Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I'll meet you there. When the soul lies down in that grass, the world is too full to talk about. Ideas, languages, even the phrase each other doesn't make any sense." -Rumithere are mazes in our minds we fear to take, until great winds of fate spin you upside down and into a mystical conduit. And I feel we become closer to God...because we are all God and we must know thy self.I Seek to understand and integrate. I aim to seek the light in everyone. I'm a very honest person so long as I'm being honest with myself. I value highly within one another truth, empathy, balance and communication.I want everyone to transform the collective mind bubble.We are merely our subjective opinions that cannot be logically quantified"Abstract translation: you need to make money to be free and do good and you need to switch off emotion *my opinion: modern slavery"Though it's hard to think outside the box, once you do, you may need to think outside that box as well. I don't like certain new-age marketing schemes. I don't believe in much, but I speculate and allow room for faith. I speculate we're all part of God and one consciousness.I do however have faith in the all knowing capacity within us, which I refer to as a God of which we're a part.I feel we are all in a sense part of something that is always all knowing and all experiencing... But as we know ourselves, we are just a cell of this knowledge within the confines of our own minds. Just be- That cell. Maintain your cell, yet be mindfull that it's existance is dependent on the interconnectivity with those around us. And thus everything that exists is perfect no matter what. Even if you think it's not. That's fine too. Thinking it's not fine... that's fine. It's whatever you want it to be. You are ultimately whomever you want to be within what determinism you have been given. Always question your perceived limitations and humble your acheivements to consider it's impact on the limitations of others.Don't hate...meditate.

My Interests

finding the synchronisities and interconnections... and I like science stuffff...Transpersonal psychology, Plasma Metaphysics, Ecopsychology, Labor and environmental standards, The I-Ching (book of changes), Collectively Conscious Entertainment, Guitar, Backgammon, Being alone and with friends, Sociopathy, Saints, Documentaries, Economics, Socialism, politics (yet not any expert), advocacy, altruism, Game theory, metaphysics, complementarities and vector lengths, exploration, tests, "insanity," humanity, meditation, polarities, community, self, collective progression, curiosity and faith, theories of conscience and morality or lack-thereof... learning about those who don't want to be understood.

I'd like to meet:

Sweet non-judgmental friends. Friends who "Get their shit together" together.People who don't need to be "famous" to feel okay. You're probably not going to be famous. You're a regular person. And the term is relative.Sometimes I just don't feel like meeting anyone...at other times I'm a social butterfly...and at those times I call myself to attention by actually wearing butterfly wings.Socially experienced introverts who quickly recognize their projections as such, COMMUNICATION, TRUTH (above all else), EMPATHY, CONSIDERATION, INTUITION, RATIONALITY, RECIPROCITY, HUMILITY, CURIOSITY, GROWTH, COURAGE, HEART, HUMOR, NERD, ACTIVIST, TEMPERANCE.Someone to read a good book with at night. just love, truth and the virtues these entail."too weird to live, too rare to die"The ultimate self and merging point of infinite vantagepoints... I like talking to "wierd" people in order to understand myself beyond the limits of my own subjectivity. But the weird only goes so far...

Television:

Free-trade is not to blame - it is the values of the people who run the shops, and the people who turn a blind eye to exploitation. Free-trade, or restricted trade, will not increase or decrease these peoples wages one bit - what they lack is basic human rights. The right, for example, not to be beaten. The right to rest and relaxation. The right of freedom to peacefully gather..."Every gun that is made, every warship that is launched, every rocket that is fired signifies in the final sense a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those that are cold and not clothed."For the cost of one F-22 fighter jet, we could build 31 new elementary schools.Instead of buying two aircraft carriers, we could hire 65,000 new teachers.For the amount spent on ballistic missile defense, nearly 6 million children could be receiving health care.The message it clear: by crippling public education and social services to funnel more money into the Pentagon, Bush's budget will not secure the future of our nation.Television is plastic crack and I don't have cable. Instead I look up issues on Youtube.I do however like discovery channel, science programs, The Daily Show, Colbert Report, the office, scrubs, the Simpsons, Seinfeld, Ali G, My name is Earl, and varioius educational programs that are interesting. I LOVE Mister Roger's Neighborhood. He's such an inspiring and loving person. Watching his commerative DVD made me cry a number of times. I'm a sap. I used to watch Pete and Pete on Nickelodeon and loved the band Polaris that opened the show. I'll watch shows on DVDs and on YouTube, but I don't like having the constant access of cable. I also have no need to constantly stay updated with current events or the news due to other interests, but I do find the current state of the televised world of politics and the media overwhelming and too overly processes. I'd just rather not be fed any of it right now.

Books:

I-CHING, GOODNIGHT MOON (moon was my first word), THE MAN WHO MISTOOK HIS WOFE FOR A HAT, Elizabeth Wurtzel's "PROZAC NATION", CONFESSIONS OF AN ECONOMIC HITMAN, Brave New World, The physics of consciousness, the self aware universe, NICKEL AND DIMED, the Kama Sutra, TRANSCENDENTIAL MEDITATION TEACHINGS Maharishi Mahesh YOgi, Rumi, 1984, The Sociopath Next Door, Jung, Merlin Donald's "A Mind So Rare: The Evolution of Human Consciousness," the power of now, The Te of Piglet and the Tao of Pooh, THE MIDDLE OF EVERYWHERE, Life Is a Miracle: An Essay Against Modern Superstition, carlos castaneda series, celestine prophecy(although Redfield is a crappy writer he's a philosopher at heart), BREAKING OPEN THE HEAD, The pursuit of attention, Books about psychic vampires that drain your auric field, The road less traveled... Scott Peck series. The Darwin awards, Dr.Amen's books on ADD and brain function.... I loved Stephen King books when I was a tormented junior high adolescent (Carrie, The shining, Pet Sematary, Cujo, It, The Dead Zone, Fire Starter, AND His short srories such as the Mist, the raft, word processer of the Gods, and the Monkey, )....but now i dont' read much fiction. The chronicles of Narnia. Books in general. I like people that can put thoughts to words to create art. I like reading other's poetry and rereading my own.I like reading things on the interenet about "love" "interpersonal relationships" "sociopaths" "evil" "zen, psychology, spirituality, quantum physics and philosophy"
