If you’ve been reading my blog for a while then you know I’m a stoner, and have been one for a while now, and I’ve gone through many different stages of use, setting up all kinds of goals for moderation throughout the years, at times following through and at times not so much. Now, although … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 121: Can’t Hide From Life’s Lessons

500 WORDS, DAY 120: The Importance of Balance
Balance is really one of the most important things we can learn and practice in this life, if not the most important thing, since it applies to absolutely everything. Everything, and I really do mean absolutely everything, has to be balanced. Not everything is, but everything should be, in order for some degree of order … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 120: The Importance of Balance
500 WORDS, DAY 119: All You Need is Love
Love can be such a beautiful thing, but I feel like it's unfortunately severely misunderstood by society at large. I think people underestimate the power of love because it seems to many like little more than a nice concept, only a mere fantasy which hardly translates to real life, especially when it comes to romantic … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 119: All You Need is Love
500 WORDS, DAY 118: Melancholy/Nostalgia
Joy and sadness all come over me and converge into a constant feeling of melancholy, a faint satisfaction which is strange to try to describe, as I think of what I’ve sacrificed and what I’ve gained, both consciously and unconsciously, throughout the fleeting years of my life up until now. That melancholy has become so … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 118: Melancholy/Nostalgia
500 WORDS, DAY 117: All Uniquely Similar
I’m not a guru of any kind. In fact, I’d consider myself somewhat of an idiot in a lot of ways. Don’t get me wrong, I do have confidence in myself and I’m quite proud of some of my achievements and some aspects of my personality. I feel like I’m very observant, and I notice … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 117: All Uniquely Similar
500 WORDS, DAY 116: Words from a Mind
Appreciation for those who paved the way. Gratitude towards those who came before. Respecting tradition. Understanding it isn’t the end-all be-all. Some rules are meant to be broken. Things are meant to change. Change is the only constant. We need to exercise caution. There are so many ways to mess it all up. Venturing into … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 116: Words from a Mind
500 WORDS, DAY 115: Notes from My Past
Since I didn't write anything new today, and this daily goal merely entails I post the necessary amount of words per day, I had to go back into some of my old writing in order to make sure I didn't miss my goal. It feel strange posting something from the past, but I think at … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 115: Notes from My Past
500 WORDS, DAY 114: Ideas
There is a sickness that invades our minds, our lives and our families. The sickness of negative influence, a virus that spreads negativity, disrespect, hatred and fear throughout the planet we inhabit. This virus is the cause of widespread, unnecessary suffering and death. But as the saying goes, one man’s trash is the next man’s … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 114: Ideas
500 WORDS, DAY 113: Meditation
Throughout all the ups and downs of my life; during my times of greatest inspiration, as well as those of equally great disappointment, there’s been one very simple thing which has always helped to keep me centered, and which I feel quite confident in recommending to really anyone out there reading this. The thing I’m … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 113: Meditation
500 WORDS, DAY 112: Words
It is true that when one is alone one can reflect. As Manly P. Hall said, life’s experiences are the elements the philosopher experiments with. Everything is mental, and perception largely shapes the way in which we see and experience the world. When we can get our mind into a state of observation, of witnessing … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 112: Words
