Free People has launched a short film, titled ‘The Cabin’. As the film opens, videographer Jacques Naude unexpectedly discovers film from a weekend in his past. Memories flood back to the time when he and girlfriend, Noot Seear, were deciding the fate of their impassioned relationship. Facing life changes that threaten to split them apart, the couple decided to escape to where their love began: a rustic cabin in Maine. There, we watch as their romance unfolds. In simple moments together, surrounded by the peace of nature, the two are able to find a short refuge. Through affection, laughter, and adventure, one can see that their love is real. Will what they’ve realized hold them together, or will it encourage them to set each other free?

He reminds us to never take the roll of the victim because by doing so we render ourselves helpless to the happenings of our lives, giving up our ability to act. You are in control of your life, so no matter what happens, keep your control. Maintain your composure and keep working to make things better.  Don’t give up your fight, take charge of the situation and realize that you are the boss of your life and you can do with it as you please. Don’t victimize your life because it won’t help you to better your circumstances. Put one foot in front of the other and keep moving forward.

Today in this very special day of mine i just want to say thanks. Thanks to whatever it was that brought you into my life. Whatever force brought us together, wether it was destiny, fate, luck, or anything else. It doesn’t matter. I’m just glad and thankful that me and you became US. This great love of ours proves, at least to me, that miracles and magic truly do exist for those willing to open their eyes, their hearts and their souls to another. Your the best gift this life has ever given me and I will treasure you and cherish you as such, savoring every precious moment with you for the rest of my life.

Comedian Bill Hicks with some wise words for all to hear. Sometimes the truth is so hard to hear that we need to label it as comedy. Rest in Peace Bill

You know I really love your sound
Where can I leave you now?
I’m gonna miss your love tonight

Well I say hey
Count me in
Always
That’s all I wanted
Was to say
Always

A beautiful world.

Look around you, it is amazing. Skyscrapers, gravity, daisies, peaches, archipelagos, children, languages, music, wars, phosphorous, galaxies, snow, literature, human existence.

We live in such a breathtaking environment that is full of magic and wonder. Although we can feel intense sadness, profound happiness can be just around the corner. One step away. One thought away. One kiss away. Sources for joy are literally everywhere, one just has to overlook all of the negative things trying to cover them up.

The world conspires for you to be happy, not unhappy. It is all a matter of perspective, of stepping back and taking a good look at the world around you. How can you ever be bored, depressed, frustrated, annoyed or jealous in a world of such infinite possibility?

Are you discontent with your current situation? Then change it. Move elsewhere. Do something else. Befriend other people. This world is not a single plane, it is vast and varied and waiting to be experienced.

If today is not a good day, wake up tomorrow and start a better day. Better yet, close your eyes for one minute and open them looking for the beauty, the complexity, the awesomeness that is this Universe. Forget the ugliness, the adversity, the vacuous nature that so many impose upon the world around them for those details are not worth paying attention to, nor remembering.

What good do negative thoughts and actions serve? They only hurt, cramp and suppress positivity. It is only with optimism, altruism and compassion that this world can be cured of its ills. Judgement, hatred, egotism, bitterness and despair only bring more evil into a world already riddled with problems. Even a very small amount of a good can spread exponentially because it is so much more rare than bad in this universe.

Regarding good, people are the ultimate source of it. Every single human being is completely different with their own flaws, skills, experiences, secrets, and dreams. Every man and woman holds inside of themselves a story so infinitely interesting that it could never be told completely in a film, book or conversation. People cannot be defined as ignorant, pretty, selfish, purple, happy or conservative. Every person is a unique being shaped by the infinite amount of variables that our Earth-bound existences offer us. The Earth is a museum and we all are the art within it. Study all of the art regardless of its shape, color or texture and you will gain a greater understanding of the museum.

Life is what you make of it. Life is perception: sight, taste, smell, sound and touch. Reality depends upon the intensity and angle with which light hits our eyes. Reality sounds only because of the way our brains decipher the vibrations of the air around us. That same air is only felt because of the stimulation of our nerve endings and the subsequent signals to our brains. We are told only what is around us, it is our job to actually interpret that information. A “negative” sensory input can be a source of anguish, or simply an inspiration to change everything and attract more positive inputs. It is up to you, and you alone. No one thing or one person can decide or influence how you feel. That is completely up to you. Decide to be happy about life and you will remain that way. It is your perception, so why not make it a positive perception?

We live in a beautiful world. It is time that you see the beauty. It is ever-pervading and impossible to miss unless your eyes are closed. So open them.

El mundo es hermoso.

Mira a tu alrededor, es asombroso. Rascacielos, gravedad, margaritas, duraznos, archipiélagos, niños, lenguajes, culturas, música, guerras, fósforo, galaxias, nieve, literatura, existencia humana.

Vivimos en un ambiente impresionante que esta lleno de magia y maravillas. Aunque podemos sentir tristezas intensas, pueden haber felicidades profundas al rededor de cualquier esquina. A un paso. A un pensamiento. A un beso. Hay fuentes de alegría por todos lados, uno solo tiene que pasar por alto todas las cosas negativas que intentan cubrirlas.

El mundo conspira para que seamos felices, no infelices. Todo es cuestión de perspectiva, de dar un paso atrás y echarle una buena mirada al mundo en tu alrededor. Como podes estar aburrido, depresivo, frustrado, irritado o celoso en un mundo de posibilidades infinitas?

No estas contento con tu situación actual? Pues cambiala. Mudate a otro lado. Haz otra cosa. Busca amigos nuevos. Este mundo no existe en un solo plano, es amplio y variado y esperando a ser experimentado.

Si hoy no fue un buen día, despierta mañana y comienza un día mejor. Cierra tus ojos por un minuto y cuando los abras busca por la belleza, la complejidad, la genialidad que es este universo. Olvidate de lo feo, de la adversidad, de esa carácter vacío que tantos imponen en su mundo. No vale la pena recordar o fijarse en esos detalles.

Que bien sirven los pensamientos y las acciones negativas? Solo lastiman, estorban y suprimen lo positivo. Es solo con optimismo, altruismo y compasión que podemos curar a este mundo de sus males. Juicio, odio, egoísmo, amargura y desesperación solo otorgan mas mal a un mundo que ya esta plagado con problemas. Hasta la mas mínima cantidad de bien se puede esparcir exponencialmente por que es mucho mas raro y poderoso que el mal en este Universo.

Con respecto al bien, las personas son la máxima fuente. Cada ser humano es completamente diferente, con sus propios defectos, habilidades, experiencias, secretos, y sueños. Cada hombre y mujer tiene adentro una historia tan infinitamente interesante que no puede ser contada por completo en ninguna película, libro o conversación. Cada persona es un ser único, conformado por una cantidad infinita de variables que nuestra existencia en la tierra nos otorga. La tierra es un museo y todos nosotros somos el arte que contiene. Estudia todas las obras de arte sin importar su forma, color o textura y obtendrás un mejor conocimiento del museo.

La vida es lo que haces de ella. La vida es percepción: vista, sabor, olor, sonido y tacto. La realidad depende de la intensidad y el ángulo en cual la luz choca con nuestros ojos. La realidad suena solamente por la manera en que nuestros cerebros descifran las vibraciones en el aire a nuestro alrededor. Ese mismo aire solo se siente por la estimulacion de nuestras terminaciones nerviosas y las señales que mandan a nuestro cerebro. Se nos dice solo lo que se encuentra a nuestro alrededor, después es nuestro trabajo interpretar esa información. Un pedazo de información negativa puede ser una fuente de angustia, o simplemente una inspiración para cambiar todo y atraer mas entradas positivas. Depende solamente de ti. Nada y nadie puede decidir o influenciar como te sientes. Si decides estar alegre por la vida te mantendrás de esa manera. Es tu percepción así que por que no convertirla en percepción positiva?

Vivimos en un mundo hermoso. Es hora de que veas la belleza. Es omnipresente e imposible de no ver, a no ser que tus ojos estén cerrados. Abrelos.

Sometimes it takes stepping completely out of a situation in order to find understanding. We all need transformative experiences. Transformative for the better. The individual needs to be transformed before we transform the collective. This life is amazing, or like joe rogan says “We live in a fucking Fantasy world”. Don’t forget that this life is a trip and we have to enjoy it. Chase your own love and happiness. Live your life with gratitude, with humility and with courage. If you approach psychedelics in the same way then they can be a great tool in your unfoldment as a human being, in your growth towards a more humane individual. I don’t think anything has the potential to be as earth shattering and transformative as psychedelics. As far as i know, it’s the only thing that can, with a single dose, shatter your worldview and wake you up to the realization that this life, this reality, encompasses a lot more than you had previously thought. It’s about a lot more than you had ever imagined. And maybe not everyone needs psychedelics to get the experience, you can get them through other means, but we all need the experience, we all need it in order to change. We all need to shatter this bullshit, conventional, main stream worldview and realize that this life is about a lot more than they tell you in school or in television. Don’t allow anyone to define your life for your. Define your own ideas of progress and success and then go after them. And above all, please THINK. Think about your actions, your thoughts, your words. The ability to think is what defines us as human beings. So turn off the auto-pilot, start thinking and take charge of your life. We are all blessed to be alive and we all get to do what we want with our experience. But remember, we are neither machines nor zombies. We are no simple animal. We’re human beings and we have to start acting like it. Like always, keep growing. In the light direction.

“By night, Love, tie your heart to mine, and the two
together in their sleep will defeat the darkness”
