Frailty

Today i had a bit of a realization, that realization is that frailty is often in the place you expect it less. I guess i have been a bit clouded with my own inner workings to look out into the world and see the people around me, even my brother and sisters, or my mother, or father.

But i also think frailty is not weakness, it is a strength that is immeasurable and so misunderstood in our society that it seems like a weakness.

Frailty defined by a dictionary will mention moral weakness, but i disagree with this, i think that frailty is more of a state of being where morals are questioned and strengthened. A continuous improvement on ones morals. I may be wrong but words are not others. Words are your own.



Hmmm....what video to put?

Von (hope)

I highly recommend checking this entire Sigur Ros video, it is a film of a bunch of free concerts they put on in Iceland, not only is the music amazing, the sets and cinematography is awesome, it was at the top of the documentary lists for awhile, if anyone wants to borrow or a copy shout out my email, if you don't know my email i guess your screwed :P (dj_flabtastic@yahoo.com).

Are Sleep and Hallucination synonymous?

You ever wake up around someone and not know what is going on? You know that point where you are half awake and you imagine things that are not there? Anyway my sleep was like that last night and it was scary, my dad is on oxygen and you are not supposed to have any open flames around or anything, so twice last night i woke up and could swear i heard the flick of a lighter, in my muddled state i had to get up and strain my eyes to see if he was awake and trying to smoke. Then i woke up and could only see the shadow of something that looked like he was slumped over in his chair, like he was dead. Man i wonder how i will feel in comparison to this when he actually dies. It is a pretty scary thing, to think that someone who can guide and love you unconditionally will just go away someday, that the only thing left of them will be the resonance of their love and life transmitted through your own love and life.

It's funny that an entire industry was made to make a piece of plastic recreate something that exists naturally. I always wondered what the intrigue of fishing was, i guess the excitement i feel in catching a fish is not visceral, in fact i don't really see the point unless i am going to eat it. It's hard because my dad loves fishing and that is one thing i never understood. I never understood the point of taking something out of its natural environment for our pleasure. I guess it is a form of exploration, a way of pulling in something that you don't understand to try and better understand it. To achieve a type of understanding between you and an extension of yourself, casting out an intention. I love being in nature and sometimes fishing is an excuse to be there, but i guess i don't have the intention of ever catching a fish. I'm sure that would change if i was hungry without food, until then i will cast without intention.

More Kensrue

And just because i love this man's music i decided to include some more. But i am torn, do i share more thoughts...nah. I have to build some suspense as to what my next thoughts will be right?

First Entry

So i decided that this would be a good forum for sharing some things i love; music, thoughts, and insights. All that good stuff and more.
Right now i am just consumed with so many things, i am a bit overwhelmed, I wonder how many deaths are stress related?
I decided to pray with a chaplain yesterday, and it felt good. I may not be anything in the religion realm but i always avoided prayer despite being pretty spiritual. I am thinking now i have been neglecting myself. I think prayer is a wonderful form of directing a pure intention, if indeed the intention is pure. I have also been thinking about getting into meditation again, i think my mind and body would benefit greatly if they gave themselves a break. Ehh, we'll see.
Anyway, i plan on uploading or linking a cool song or video or something everyone of these i do.
