Plaid Is In

Now that I've been thrown back into the world of hustle, stress, arguments, DVR, and YouTube marathons. When I ask...what did I miss? What happened? All I'm getting from everybody is...

-Lady Gaga is huge
-Taylor Swift is dating some werewolf from Twilight
-Obama is sending my cousin BACK to Iraq for the 3rd time even though he has 4 kids and his wife has MS.
-Plaid is in
-Icthus is taking another campanooing trip (score!)
-Lauren Davis and Alex Russel are dating (adorable)
-Mirey Cirus has a song about not getting a memo about wearing stilettos or something

Honestly I haven't got much more out of anyone than that...and the Lady Gaga news seems to be the BIGGEST DEAL EVER or something (even my mom named dropped her.)

I'm not purposing that Popular Culture is intrinsically bad but when celebrity gossip and fashion trends becomes what we think of to define our last five months its a sad life we lead here.

Lets define our lives by love and not media.
By deep conversations and not YouTube videos.
Lets lead more spiritual lives...where spirituality is truth and breath not just something we list on our Facebook interest.
Who's with me!? We can do it!

Aham = I, me, myself


When the first thought of “I” comes then many thoughts increase. So to finish the thoughts, first we have to finish the thought of “I.”
To get rid of this Aham we have to think of the benefits of others. Then our mind will fill with the thoughts of others, then there will not be space for Aham.

Guys, where are we?

Today I had to teach yoga in the temple at 5:30 am because Publio took a trip with Valentino. Haha I'm terrible at yoga because I'm not flexible but I enjoy water-air yoga verses fire-earth yoga (more powerful and difficult.)

Anyways we did stretches, mental visualizations, and I incorporated some FaulDafa which was nice and peaceful.

The whole point of this is that I was really tired so I took a small nap and I dreamed that Valentino was teaching a philosophy lesson in a huge pagoda and all of a sudden he turned into Benjamin Linus and was chasing me with a small knife! OMGH! I was terrified and we were then in a baseball stadium and I was running for my life!!!!! What does this mean!??!??

I was in a Buddhist temple which focuses on Dharma...okay Ben aka Henry Gale is the leader of the DHARMA Initiative...if you don't count Jacob which I'm not for the sake of making this story more dramatic. Basically I feel like it's all connected...namaste, 8 more days, Dharma...not to mention the Dharma Initianive's symbol is TOTALLY used as our school's LOGO!!!!


Alice Project is based on Alice In Wonderlands perception mishaps and nothing if more perceptually changing than The Island.

WTF?
