Let’s Talk About Sex, Baby

Alright, not to be redundant, but sex is so taboo… still! We live in a society that uses sexual arousal as a means to motivate consumption. It has become bastardized, I get that. But let’s forget about all of that for a second! What is sex? Sexual intercourse, for a lot of people (and most […]Read Post ›

Fare Thee Well

I don’t know that I could consider myself a “Dead Head,” since I’ve only really known who the Dead are since last year. My partner at the time is a huge Dead Head, and she would make her jewelry while listening to them for hours. At first, they sounded just like any other ‘classic rock’ […]Read Post ›

Make Each Day Brand New

Bold title, I know. But that really is the quintessential achievement for humans seeking self-improvement. What am I saying? Basically that if we are able to take each day, and make it a complete and wonderful adventure that we have never experienced before, then we have succeeded as living beings and will enjoy the rest […]Read Post ›

Connecting the Dots

A recent theme in my life has been one of connection. Not just connection of people, but connection of events, themes, and different ways of being that I’ve experienced throughout my lifetime. Even beyond that, into the thoughts and experiences of past lives and potential alternate dimensions spawned from one fragment of my consciousness. When […]Read Post ›

The Lost Art of Communication

“Clear Communication: May our minds work together to find mutual understanding. May I see you true and be seen in kind. May our words reveal more than they obscure. Most of all: May our minds, eyes, and tongues be guided by our hearts, and the language far older than words.” It goes without saying (no […]Read Post ›

Differing opinions may cause heated debates or even arguments, but they do not and should not fracture the foundations on which your friendships are built. A friend is […]Read Post ›

Quote of the Day: 10/13/11

“I want freedom for the full expression of my personality.” -Mohandas Gandhi How many times have you said that to yourself? Everyone truly wants to have the confidence to be able to express themselves as they please. That is the only way to enjoy life to the fullest; being yourself.

Quote of the Day: 10/12/11

“Hate the sin, love the sinner.” -Mohandas Gandhi People make mistakes. That is the way of life. So judging people by the mistakes they make and the sins they commit isn’t the correct way to act. It isn’t our place to judge other lifestyles and other people, because we are not aware of the circumstances […]Read Post ›

Quote of the Day: 9/27/11

“An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.” -Buddha Sincerity is crucial to a long-lasting friendship. Sincerity means being honest, truthful, and meaning what you say. Without sincerity, you will never be trusted by […]Read Post ›

Be a Band Geek

I was watching American Pie 2 the other day, and all of a sudden I felt sick to my stomach. The scene came on where the character Jim, who is pretty nerdy and extremely awkward, has a chance to hook up with the amazing hottie Nadia. As they are getting close to the moment of […]Read Post ›
