Light Travels Faster Than Sound, Which Is Why Some People Appear Bright Until You Hear Them Speak.

The Distance Between

Im only as far from you as you are from me.

Stars

As a child, I knew
That the stars could only get brighter
And we would get closer
Get closer

When I was a child, I knew
That the stars could only get brighter
That we would get closer
Leaving this darkness
Behind

Now that I'm older
The stars could lie upon my face
And when I find myself out there
I feel like I
I am high

Now that I'm older
The stars shine upon my face
And walk out into space
I feel like I
Like I was blind

To see you now
To hear you now
I can look outside myself
And I must examine the world and look inside
Because I feel light
Because I feel on fire

Crusade

"On a crusade of mass hysteria by spinning the wheels of steel"

I really like the sound of that. I didnt come up with it, but I enjoy saying it to myself and out loud.

Reality

Escape from reality is normally costly.
What I offer is free.

New view

Nothing is familiar, the faces all estrange.
Someone's took our memories and now they're rearranged.
Accepting new is old, old is never new.
Mere reflection tells me, all that's true.

Connections

Connections between your environment and yourself.

Experiments in physics have shown that particles are connected even when separated. There is something that connects us together. They have done experiments where particles are separated across a room. When they effect one particle, the other particle has the same change happen to it, even though they are not connected. Their intentions for this technology/phenomena are for communications, but I see much more to this phenomena.

When we are in a situation, and we see a part of that situation that isn’t well aligned, look for that thing in yourself. When you see someone else that you interact with having a difficulty, look for that thing in yourself. If you find that part in yourself that another person is having problems with, you have the ability to affect a change on that thing in yourself. Because like particles have the ability to clone changes, you have the ability to help that person out. Your conductivity will determine how well this will work. You may think, “but I don’t have that problem, why do I need to change”. My answer is, that there is a reason you are seeing certain things about other people and your environment. You are seeing them because you have the ability to make an adjustment inside of yourself that can improve yourself and what is around you. Your ability to affect change is based on how well you can change in yourself. You cant always externally change things, but you can always change internally.

Conductivity

Conductivity

Some people are more conductive that others. Conductivity is how well (or conductive) a person can transfer between internal and external. We all have aspects inside of ourselves that are working to shine out. Personalities, goals, feelings to name a few. For a conductive person, the world seems to open up in front of them. Some would call it luck or coincidence, but I call it conductivity. Being conductive is going into a store with the intention to buy an item, then having a person walk up to you and start talking to you about the very item that you were wanting. Or perhaps you are working with a client and start talking about your service and the client immediately jumps on board, talking about how much they need and have been wanting that service. A conductive person is more likely to be able to resonate the same point in another person/environment that exists in their self.

A resistive person is the opposite of a conductive one. All people have some resistance, even the most conductive ones, it is part of being human. A resistive person has a resistance that things must pass through to transfer between their internal and external. A resistive person will miss opportunities because they don’t see them due to the resistance blocking their sight. A resistive person will internally be good match for something but externally not recognized as a good match.

The difficulty of being conductive is that a conductive person is more susceptible to negative things too. The more conductive a person becomes, the more careful they have to be with what they interact with. These are things that a resistive person would normally not worry about. Because their resistance is high, they are not as susceptible to these things affecting them.

There is more to the puzzle. A person might be conductive, but be conductive to the wrong thing. Internally, they might not be well aligned to their purpose. What a person might want/ or be aligned to may not be a good match for them. A resistive person wont has as much of a problem with this because their intentions don’t as easily make it outside of themselves.

Conductivity and resistance work bi-directional. Being conductive will allow the environment and other people align to you and for you to align to the environment and other people. The more resistance a person has, the less likely this will happen in either direction.

As you work to become conductive, you also must work on aligning to yourself and your purpose so that the things you become conductive to are a good match for you and your life.

Spring Time Here?

The past few days have been so wonderful, weather wise at least. What is it about the weather that motivates us? Why do we as humans have "rainy days" or winter de-motivation? For me, and many others, the end of winter has a very strong effect on me. I feel happier and more motivated.

What is odd, is that in the winter it can be sunny too. When I am in the house durning a sunny winter day, I could have the thermostat set at 70-75, but it doesnt motivate me.

When I am inside on a sunny day, with the house @ 75F, how does my body know to act different when it is warm outside vs cold. If I have not been outside yet, how does it know?

Why is it that in the summer, I can set the A/C to 65 and feel great, yet when it is 65 outside I feel chilly and un-motivated.

A New Symphony

I started writing a orchestrial score the other day. After a few hours of work I was very pleased with the progress and sound. I quickly found the limits of my computer. I was otherwise satisfied with my old computer, but I couldnt let it hold me back from composing. So it was time for an upgrade.

When I sleep, I hear the music that I write. Each night, I hear new parts of the song and new instruments to add. It is very cool how it all happens. Although I have written other types of songs, I find the orchstral score the easiest to write. At some point, I will post a sample.

The Nature of the World

It may seem that the world is complicated. So many people, so much complexity and so much going on beyond our awareness.

The complexity breaks the world up into smaller, less universal pieces that are easier to digest.

Our difficulties are not with the complexity of the world, but with our inability to see it in its simplest form.

For Giving, not For Getting

-rhombus

What is a Rhombus

The most common question I get on my blog is if a rhombus is a square.
Here is the answer:

A rhombus is not a square, but a square is a special type of rhombus.
A rhombus is defined as a 4 sided shape with all 4 sides equal in length.
A square is the same as a rhombus, but all sides are at 90deg (right) angles.

New Phases

As I finish a long and important phase of my life today, I find it interesting that I don’t feel the way I had always imagined. My personal triumph is overshadowed by a feeling of sadness that my fellow comrades are not crossing the line with me. I guess what I really want is for other people to be able to share victory with me. I care too much to leave them behind.

I will do my best to honor my successes and to apply myself to helping those around me succeed as well.

Infinity and the human experience

The other night I was looking at some images taken from the Hubble Space Telescope. In particular, I was looking at what is called the Ultra Deep Field which was taken about a year ago. In the image, scientists have identified over 11,000 galaxies. The light coming from these galaxies is 13 billion years old. They put this image about 1 billion years after the big bang.

I’ve also been studying hyperspheres and space-time for a project I have been working on. These are models of the design of our universe. It is not 3 dimensional like we experience it, there are more dimensions. One of which is time.

To get the Ultra Deep Field with the Hubble, they point it at a dark part of the sky. No matter where they point the Hubble to get these deep views, they see a uniform image.

As you look far away, you are looking back in time. The farther you can see, the further back in time you can see. No matter what way you look, you are looking into the past. Since the universe started as a single point, all directions point to the same place.

We don’t experience the universe this way, except in math and theory. It is impossible for us to see the world in 4 or more dimensions. If we could, think of the possibilities. We would experience time as part of space not as a separate entity.

I started thinking about infinity. Think of a line that extends infinitely, go ahead. Now realize that in the process of you thinking about infinity, you make it finite because you had to compare it to something relative which is finite. You can’t really visualize infinity thinking of it that way. We live in what seems a finite world. Now if you were to empty your mind, and accept infinity as something that never has closure, you would be able to experience infinity. Infinity is the blank state of mind. As soon as you try to think about it, you just made it finite.

The problem we run into in thinking this way is that we have doubt. It is our doubt that will not let us accept something that isn’t finite. It is part of the human condition.

In order to experience the world and universe in a higher level than what we do, we must be able to experience infinity as infinite. Open your minds and break free from your doubts.

Past and Present

There are things in my life that I have always improved in. In these areas, opportunities always seem to open and I keep moving ahead. I like to keep moving, I like it when life is smooth sailing from one point to another. Some people seem to do this all the time.
For me, life is double sided. On the one hand I am very successful, yet in certain areas I am always faced with problems. I try to apply myself as best as I can, sometimes extending myself far beyond anything I have ever done. I try to live a life that is conductive to improvement. The things that make me successful are things that I apply to my entire life. The odd part is that it doesn't seem to work universally.
I normally either get one thing or the other. Of course it is never as simple as 2 choices. Often you find that when you get both A and B, you loose C, which before that point you didn't even realize was there.
All I really want is to improve, be successful and be balanced while doing so. If I can find a way to do that, I will be happy. Im not sure why I have had such poor success getting things to balance. It seems that it may be contrary to existence in this world. What a foul thing that would be, to understand what you want, to want to become better and balanced, to be willing to do whatever it takes to do so and then to find out that it isn't possible.

What is the point continuing down this path, even the higher one, if it only leads to disappointment? The more I learn and the more I understand how the world works, the more I realize that the right thing to do requires me to give up myself and what I want. The more I do this and the further down that path I travel, I come to realize that no one really cares that I do this and that the world doesn't really want me to get what I want, which is only to improve, be balanced, successful and happy. Do I have to become a "Wrong" person to get what I want in this world? I guess that would keep me from improving, so really I still wouldn't be happy. I wish the world didn't operate like this.

I regress to the past, where I didn't know what I know now. I wasn't as good of a person, but I didn't know that then. Sometimes I want to relive that time. It was easier to be happy.

Giving

One of my goals in life is to be a giving person. Life makes this a difficult goal. It took me some time to find a way to be able to give and stay in balance. Sometimes this becomes a stretch, but I try to give to the world all that I can. Yet I found that I cant give to the world if I give up myself and abandon the tasks that I am faced with.

Another difficult part of giving is being a true giver. I learned early that when you give you receive. At least this is the way it ideally works. But it took me a long time to understand that you don’t give to receive. It is best to give for the sake of giving. Too often people become selfish and self centered in their giving, myself included. We make decisions based on what works best for ourselves.

I try to give when it’s not in my best interest, or better put when it doesn’t give me what I want and/or immediate satisfaction. This is a difficult thing to do. I always seem to hit a wall where I don’t think I can give anymore. I try to focus and look in myself and some how I end up finding that there is still more to give. In doing so, it seems I am helping to cut new paths and better define giving. It is probably one of the hardest things I have ever attempted in my life. Constantly hitting walls in my selfish nature, only to break through to hit a wall again, it’s a lonely path. Yet it has been rewarding. I’m not sure where it will take me.
