Im thinking I should start these before the midnight hour! I am so tired, I can barely write...I mean type.
I have to say this one thing before I fall face down into my pillow....I absolutely love living life when I have absolutely NO IDEA WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN! Its crazy! In our day and age we were brought up to go to school, get a job, find safety and security, marry a nice man (or woman) have babies, get a 401K, get this, get that, do this, blah blah blah BORING. I have never felt so alive. ALIVE...like I look forward to everyday! Alive like I function with awareness, because I never know what IS going to happen! Alive like I see the beauty and reason and fine orchestration for all that happens to me...and all that happens around me. I feel apart of everything, everything feels apart of me.
I see my vulnerabilities and insecurities and meet them with compassion....and something else that I have been working on called patience:) Which allows me to see the same in others, and respond with the same patience and compassion. I took a course a few years ago..and the name is escaping me at the moment...but it was about dissolving all the "stories" that we believe are our true selves. I learned (or rather re-recognized) that about 99%of all thoughts, concerns, worries, fears....are not even OURS TO BEGIN WITH. Welcome to the SUBCONSCIOUS.
(Im sure these CAPS LOCKS may come across a bit obtrusive, but its the ONLY way I can express the passion in my voice via the "world wide web" I hope you understand!)
So back to this little point....which happens to be a corner stone for my clothing company, for the most part, we aren't even operating in our conscious mind. I could write a book on this...but many other profound and certified others already have...check out Dr.Bruce Lipton www.brucelipton.com he is my homeboy and I look forward to the day I get to shake his hand! In brief...from the age 0 - 5 our subconscious is open and we are sponges to everything around us which is primarily mom and pop. We absorb language, emotion, patterns, you name it we take it in. Then like magic, come our 5th bday, the subconscious closes up shop, boards up the doors and windows and takes a back seat to our conscious mind. Why is this interesting? Because a majority of us function out of the SUBCONSCIOUS. Do you ever wonder why you may have such weird and sometimes dare I say...awful patterns in life? Do you find yourself in the wrong relationships? Do you find yourself with an underlying thread of fear? or self doubt? or worry? negative self talk? (not that any of these happen to me....(Im Lying))....or you do certain things all the time without taking the time to think...why am I doing this, why am I saying these things? Do you believe certain things because your family believes them? People, I could go on and on but what I am trying to say, in a very short and sweet manner is this...its like a big huge joke on humans. Before we have a chance to know what the heck is going on...we are downloaded with all this "JUNK" (ok...not ALL of it is junk, but Im talking about the junky stuff!) Then we spend the entire rest of our lives, if we are lucky enough, trying to "un-teach" our bodies and our minds. Its like a tape is being played in our mind, but we never pressed play, let alone picked the album. (and this was before wonders like Pandora, which only plays music you like..imagine that!)
Before moving on. I also learned from this wonderful class that eveyone is doing the best they can with what they have. Let me type that again. Everyone is doing the best they can with what they have. Just because we function in stories that may not be ours, does not give way to blame or fault. Quite the opposite infact. It makes way for one of my favorites....
RESPONSIBILITY
Sitting around blaming mom, pop, aunty, this guy or that gal will do you no good. In fact, I believe it is more likely to cause harm, irriation and yuckiness before providing you with real relief and peace.
This clothing line is not just about cool softy comfy tee shirts and dakine...its about educating humanity on coming back to self and being 100% responsible. That means for the good, bad and indifferent. Becoming aware that we are intelligent beings who already know all that we need to know in order to survive...and dare I say, THRIVE:) Its spreading the knowledge that we CAN CHANGE OUR CELLULAR MAKE-UP...get this....we can actually change our freakin DNA. We are incredibly wonderful creations and we deserve to know this...and feel it. Without doubt. With love:)
Ok...I hope this made sense...and if not. Well, I have thirty three more days to make it make sense:)
Stay tuned:)
I have to end with this saying...because I just love it so.
Never let the odds keep you from doing what you know in your heart you were meant to do!
Go get um!
