I am glad I was born in the USA, a white guy. I dodged the oppressors and fight to not become one myself. I am very grateful that our states and cities have not seen war, it seems there is so much more happening here than we know or understand. One thing for certain the war machine doesn’t discriminate, fleeing war is always the best choice. Where would you go if there was a war? What would you take? Why? This causes me to pause and think about my life, how it is very cushy in comparison to many. I hope that it stays that way. Life today is easier than its ever been and it continues to get easier, at least for me, I suffer and have to work but I feel very strongly about this. Here is how I get there; I went to a very poor nation to work as an expat in an oilfield, I lived amongst the people; albeit much much better, the only way out was through a bush plane or the desert to the north, or Cameroon to the west, one of my favorite memories was eating mangoes that I purchased from a woman who was carrying a gunny sack of them on her head. People worked to survive, why do you work? I looked at this question and came to believe this; I work to evolve, my evolution will help my children evolve. Being an American makes this evolution safe. Being able to think freely, sleep with whomever I choose, with whatever sex I choose, our country continues to root out shame and we all continue to evolve. Part of the hindrance to evolution is disagreement and conflict; conflict never feels good for anyone; it leads to war, to separation and to injury albeit physical, mental or emotional and no one is spared. I really find conflict a fight for power, who has it, who wants it and how they are approaching the task of attaining power. When I decided to open my business I created a path for my own personal power, a way to release the lie the mind tells and stay grounded in the reality of now, it really is a practice that works. Mental conditioning to become aware of the thoughts I am having, through that I can sift and sort discarding the thoughts that do not serve me however, its work This is real work and I walk the border sometimes of thinking I am crazy with some of my thoughts and then boom I am hit with an affirmation that I am not bad crazy or stupid and that I am on the right path, to trust my instincts and listen to my gut… even when others are trying to sway me. If I can grow up in Utah in a single wide trailer, pass through a life of poor choices, join the military, begin improving my life and survive to this day, well anyone can! This is the beauty of our country, it provides the freedom for growth and evolution, be ready now for your own transformation. If you want to discuss this more lets begin your personal journey through yoga and discussion of how to stay in the Now, Connect to Reality, keep moving forward to a Manageable Life reach out cause I get bored and lonely and love to chat with new people.

Say a prayer to help us find a way for all of the worlds people to have a safe place to live and evolve.
