Ok, I am not even sure how to begin this there is so much ground to cover in this one journal. I suppose I should start with a disclaimer first. This is not considered a direct attack on anyone in particular, more a direct attack on the world in general. So all are invited to participate. Even though I know some of you wouldn't touch this one with a ten foot pole, hell some of you probably won't even finish reading it, but overall I just hope I don't stand alone even though I am fully prepared to.

For a lot of people that know me they know that I am many differenct things, a professional, a musician, a lover, a father, an artist, an advocate for peace, an advocate for friendship, an advocate for native americans, an advocate for truth, a complete giver, an ex drug addict, and even an ex homeless person, an ex-priest, a naturalist, a family man, a hard worker, a savage, a long hair, an amatuer survivalist, a man who never turns down a challenge....

Above all else I am a rebel with a cause.
That being said, let me ask a few questions laced with a few comments.

Why is it that people in the world feel so incomplete and try to fill those holes with superficial things; relationships, food, material possessions, cars, medications, alcohol, drugs, dead end relationships, work, etc.?. Why are people so afraid to really make a point out of discovering the cause of their emptiness instead of the spakle and glue to put it back together so incompletely and full of brittle supports?

You have to redirect your energies and move your senses to a wavelength that tunes your perception to a higher awareness, to truely open the pathways of your mind to knowledge, ideals, goals, and most importantly ACTIONS that build a more positive self. You have to stop hiding from the things that cause you fear and distraction, don't make yourself so trusting and make yourself vulnerable. Only then can you gain the truth that you so desperately seek in your life.

Why can't we stop focusing on the question of how do I cover up what is wrong with me and why do I feel I must destroy what is great and beautiful in another to make myself look better? Why do we feel we must take from or decieve others and hide our true selves instead of being open? Isn't that how we open and grow and share new ideas? Is that not how we become a singular collective of consciousness and understanding, fully equipped for growth and understanding? Instead we feel the need to fight and destroy each other, in the name of what? Dedication to our slave driver? An illusion of freedom and liberty to one another? No matter what country you live in we all live in a society where on some level or another we do nothing but **** each other over in the name of a leadership that has betrayed us. That has sold us lie after lie after lie. They keep doing it and we keep buying them and multiplying and buying more instead of solving the problem and working together in an intelligent, passionate, and understanding way.

Before you jam another cork in the hole you might want to consider what makes the hole in the first place. Seriously what is wrong with me, and what is wrong with us? What happened to the artists out there, the ones that truely are masters of the art of rebellion. Why are they all so washed up and so concerned about their public image anymore that they are too afraid to make a difference. Artists and musicians are responsible for single handedly changing the world in our past? What happened to that drive? What happened to us? We can not give in to this domination, we cannot keep eating their poison and living under their control, watching their tv to learn how to act, and playing their games to learn how to live. We cannot keep chasing that almighty dollor, peso, euro or whatever that is dangling on a hook in front of us, this art thing started on so much more than that it is a disgrace to see it brought to this level. We should be doing something to change the world not make a buck. Do you think Leonardo Davinci would be proud?

Put away your global McDonalds membership card because it is time for a new game and this is actually not a game at all. It is time to stand up and be yourself, be proud of who you are and don't feel ashamed or scared for speaking your true feelings, what lives inside of you and why you wake up every day. Certainly it can't be so you will work your butt off to put an expensive meal in another persons mouth or a one way ticket to salvation for anothers pocket. I will stand beside you, tell me what you believe in, not what they think you should believe in.

The world is not as big as we would think, that is an ideal that has been put in place to separate us, alienate us, and make us feel different. With the technology we have at our fingertips we should not be playing social drama, we should be playing work together to make a god given change in the world. I don't mean a christian god either, I mean whatever you believe you came from, whatever that is that is your right to have an influence on this world. NOW DO IT. Don't be another wasted life.
