Life flows from one moment to the next, from pleasure to pain, non-stop. We wonder what it all means, what is the right way to live, or the wrong way. We wonder if the things that happen are meant to be, if the lives we live mean anything at all or if everything is random. … Continue reading 1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 12: Impermanence of Life, Strength of Spirit.

1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 11: Productive Weed Highs.
So yesterday I wrote a bit about how, not wanting to quit smoking weed, I decided a few years back to try to spend most of my stoned time doing something creative, something productive. The reason I ended up writing about that yesterday was because I started by writing about the fact that, at least … Continue reading 1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 11: Productive Weed Highs.
1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 10: Cannabis, Self-Reflection and Writing.
The culture here in Honduras is very different from the one I experienced and became a part of in Canada. Most of the experiences which have truly shaped my personality the most up to this point are those that I had in Canada after my parents decided to move there when I was ten, at least until recently when … Continue reading 1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 10: Cannabis, Self-Reflection and Writing.
1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 9: Reading is a Great Hobby.
For the last year and a half I've kept up a goal of reading a book every week, or every two weeks, or occasionally a month, depending on how many pages the book has, but usually it takes me a week to read a book of around 150-200 pages. I can honestly say that this … Continue reading 1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 9: Reading is a Great Hobby.
1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 8: Your Mind is Programmable.
Your mind is programmable, and if you are not the one programming it then best believe someone else will do it for you. As I was growing up I felt so free while I chased a reckless sense of pleasure which I hoped would never end. I chased one thrill after another until I grew … Continue reading 1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 8: Your Mind is Programmable.
1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 7: Visionary Revelations of the Now.
Images flooding my mind, some familiar, some seemingly random. I close my eyes and patterns begin to form, geometric, kaleidoscopic, a tingling sensation running through my whole body, up my spine, into my cranium and brain. I recognize the truth of living in this moment, I feel it stronger than ever, the obvious truth. Different … Continue reading 1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 7: Visionary Revelations of the Now.
1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 6: Being Aware of Being Aware.
I had a really powerful experience a few months ago on an acid trip on one mere blotter tab. I've had higher dose trips, but the point was not to get insanely psychedelic that night, but to examine a bit of what is lurking just beneath my mind’s surface as I enter this technically new … Continue reading 1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 6: Being Aware of Being Aware.
1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 5: Personality, Truth & Love.
It is interesting to think about which traits of a person might be a part of his or her personality, and which might be part of something innate and belonging to the very soul of the individual. Love is unconditional because it is created in those moments in which we are truly ourselves, in those … Continue reading 1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 5: Personality, Truth & Love.
1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 4: Morality, the Origins of Good and Evil.
Yesterday I brought up a conversation which I had with my grandparents the other day, which got me thinking about the nature of God and life, as well as death, and faith. They have faith in Jesus, they are devout Christians. I have faith in God, but I'm not sure who or what God is, … Continue reading 1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 4: Morality, the Origins of Good and Evil.
1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 3: The Mystery of God.
As I wrote in my previous post, I recently had a conversation with my grandparents, while my wife Maria and I we were visiting them for Mothers' Day. Somehow we got to talking about God, about Christianity and Judaism, and about Jesus, and I brought up some concepts from some other religions which I've learned … Continue reading 1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 3: The Mystery of God.
