“The closer you come to knowing that you alone create the world of your experience, the more vital it becomes for you to discover just who is doing the creating.” - Eric Micha'el Leventhal |

Human beings are the only creatures on earth that claim a God, and the only living thing that behaves like it hasn't got one. Does the world belong to no one but you? - "The Rum Diary" - Johnny Depp quoting what the lobster told him.

"The shaman knows that the soul's urge toward beauty is not about perfect symmetry and mainstream approval. It is not about opening doors in business, or snagging the right mate, or fitting in at the A-list parties. The shaman knows that beauty is about opening doors to joy, snagging the moment, and fitting into your own life. She knows beauty is not something to buy. It is a path, a way of living and being in the world. The only path and the only way, if you want to keep dancing and singing." - Robin Rice |

Love...
"I am not afraid to tell you, 'I love you.' Your mind will say, 'How can you love me when you don't even know me?' I don't need to know you. I don't need to justify my love. I love you because this is my pleasure. Love coming out of me makes me happy, and it's not important if you reject me because I do not reject myself." - Don Miguel Ruiz, The Voice of Knowledge |
The Obama era didn’t herald a post-racial America as much as it did a racialized one, where millions of whites were hyperaware of and newly anxious about their racial status....
This isn’t the first time in our history that whites have worried about losing their pre-eminent status. In the early 20th century, massive Southern and Eastern European immigration, as well as Chinese immigration in the American West, fueled nativism and white racism, and helped lead to the resurrection of the Ku Klux Klan. The revived Klan organized millions of white Americans in a movement against immigrants, blacks, and religious minorities like Catholics. This, along with a broader nativist movement, had an enormous impact on American politics—entire states, like Indiana, were controlled by Klan-backed politicians while national lawmakers passed harsh, restrictive immigration laws. Our current burst of nativism and racial anxiety is proving to be a similarly potent force. —Jamelle Bouie From How Trump Happened at Slate.com |

The Thing is...
To love life, to love it even when you have no stomach for it and everything you’ve held dear crumbles like burnt paper in your hands, your throat filled with the silt of it. When grief sits with you, its tropical heat thickening the air, heavy as water more fit for gills than lungs; when grief weights you like your own flesh only more of it, an obesity of grief, you think, How can a body withstand this? Then you hold life like a face between your palms, a plain face, no charming smile, no violet eyes,and you say, yes, I will take you I will love you, again... -Ellen Bass |

Living with purpose...

You are a combination of the five people you spend the most time with. Most people regard me as a loner, but honestly I do enjoy the company of others. I am very particular with whom I choose to keep within my inner circle and even then I ensure I spend lots of time alone with myself so I can gain a deeper appreciation and understanding of who I really am. I have become very mindful of my decisions and ensuring they are a product of my highest good and not what is influencing me. Choose wisely who stays the closest to you. Always strive to ensure one of those five people in your life is a positive mentor. ~Will "Story" Rivera |
